Biography by AllMovie

Juvenile actress Dana Hill burst into the public's consciousness with her poignant portrayal of a molestation victim in the made-for-TV movie Fallen Angel (1981). Hill was able to play adolescents and teenagers well into her 20s, essaying meaty supporting roles in such films as Shoot the Moon (1981), Cross Creek (1983) and National Lampoon's European Vacation (1985). On TV, she was seen as Gabby, daughter of Mimi Kennedy, in The Two of Us (1981), and as Ginger in Sugar and Spice. Her on-screen work radically curtailed by chronic illness--she would succumb to diabetes at the age of 32--Dana Hill flourished as a voiceover artist, lending her distinctively throaty vocal timbre to such TV cartoon series as Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures, Widget the Worldwatcher, The Goof Troop, Droopy, Master Detective, Bonkers, and Duckman.
