Transcription
Early life
Green grew up in Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey, and graduated from Pascack Hills High School[1][2] and Vassar College. She worked at a Roy Rogers restaurant and made commercials for Jordache jeans and Bold 3 detergent.[1]
Career
Green is best known for her roles as a young teen in a string of teen flicks in the 1980s, including Summer Rental (1985). Her big break came in the 1985 film The Goonies, in which she played cheerleader-turned-adventurer Andrea "Andy" Carmichael. Two months later, she worked in Summer Rental where she portrayed Jennifer Chester.
She gained further critical acclaim for her performance in Lucas (1986) in which she starred as the center of a love triangle between the characters of Corey Haim and Charlie Sheen. However, her next film Three for the Road (1987), which featured Charlie Sheen and Alan Ruck, did not fare as well.
Green later appeared in a 1990 episode of In the Heat of the Night, performed in an independent film called Blue Flame, and played the role of secretary of Paul Reiser's character in two episodes of the television sitcom Mad About You.
Green eventually co-founded a film production company, Independent Women Artists with Bonnie Dickenson. With Dickenson, she co-wrote and directed the film adaptation of a play about teen pregnancy called Bellyfruit (1999).
Personal life
Green took a break from acting to study art at Vassar College, where she was roommates with Marisa Tomei's brother, Adam, and with BioShock developer Ken Levine.[3]
