Biography:
Alyssa Milano, born on Dec. 19, 1972 in Brooklyn, NY, Milano was raised in Staten
Island by her father, Thomas, a music editor, and her mother, Lin, a former
fashion designer and talent manager. When she was seven years old, Milano was
brought to an open casting call by her babysitter for a touring company production
of “Annie” without telling her parents. Milano was one of four plucked out of 1,500
aspirants and spent the next 18 months on the road with her mother as chaperone.
Upon her return, she appeared in several off-Broadway productions,
including a musical adaptation of “Jane Eyre,” while maintaining
the semblance of a somewhat normal childhood. After landing representation,
the 10-year-old actress was flown to Los Angeles, where she auditioned for
the part of Tony Danza’s daughter for the pilot episode
of "Who's the Boss?" She landed the role, moved to the West Coast
with her family and spent the next eight years playing Samantha Micelli,
the smart-alecky daughter of a put-upon widowed father (Danza) who finds
employment as a live-in housekeeper for a divorced advertising
executive (Judith Light) and her family (Katherine Helmond and Danny Pintauro).

While many child stars from hit sitcoms tended to fall off the
radar once hitting adulthood, actress Alyssa Milano rode out the
initial disinterest she received following her run
on “Who’s the Boss?” (ABC, 1984-1992) to become the star of
numerous small screen movies and other television shows.
During her eight-year stint on “Who’s the Boss?” Milano made her
feature film debut as Arnold Schwarzenegger’s kidnapped daughter
in “Commando” (1985) while starring in several high school-themed television movies.
