Amanda Peterson

Born Phyllis Amanda Peterson, Amanda Peterson became a teen idol after the success of the 1987 film, Can’t Buy Me Love. She co-starred with Patrick Dempsey in the movie. Peterson began acting from a very young age. She used the name, Mandy Peterson, at the beginning of her career. This name is widely used by her friends and family. 

Even though Peterson had a very bright career, the lifestyle didn’t suit her well. Her pain management regime led her to depend on morphine, which ultimately became the cause of her death.
