Cameron Finley
The pint-sized star of the movie "Leave it to Beaver" (1997), Cameron Finley won the coveted title role as a result of a nationwide talent search conducted in seven major cities, involving 5,000 boys. Having worked professionally since the age of three when he landed his first commercial (for Shell Oil), Finley saw his first two feature films open three weeks apart in 1993, "A Perfect World," followed by "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," in which he played one of Mary Steenburgen's children. He portrayed a young Lane Frost (Luke Parry as a kid) in "8 Seconds" (1994) and made the first of his many appearances on TV that same year. Finley, who played a supporting part in "Hope Floats" (1998), starring Sandra Bullock and Harry Connick Jr, continues to live in Garland, Texas where his parents protect his normalcy as best they can.
