Bern Nadette Stanis – Age 65

If you watched CBS’ sitcom Good Times, then you would remember Bern Nadette Stanis, who portrayed Thelma Anne Evans-Anderson. She stayed in the show’s cast until 1979, but she later started landing fewer and fewer roles. Gradually, she decided to slow down on acting and try her luck as an author, now having released four books. She still makes some guest appearances in TV series or talk shows, but other than that, she’s probably on her way to retirement planning.
