Andrew McCarthy
Then
In the 1980s, Andrew McCarthy was a genuine star who is most remembered for co-starring with Molly Ringwald in the film Pretty in Pink. He brought back some great youthful memories and was the epitome of hotness. Later, he shifted his focus from acting to writing. He contributed as an editor to the National Geographic Traveler magazine and wrote for a number of other publications. While he occasionally featured on TV shows, he hasn't been seen much on the big screen since Pretty in Pink.

Now
McCarthy has recently been in a number of television programs, including White Collar, but he has also worked as a director in the background. He also helmed the Netflix blockbuster series Orange is the New Black in addition to directing multiple episodes of the CW's hit drama Gossip Girl. On VH1's list of the 100 Greatest Teen Stars of All Time, Andrew is listed at number 40 due to his significant acting performance during the 1980s. He has three kids from two different marriages.
