On this throwback Thursday, we look back at LATF’s photo shoot with actress, Sammi Hanratty. TV audiences are binge watching “Yellowjackets” on Showtime, where Sammi portrays ‘teen’ Misty, the younger version of Christina Ricci’s character. The series follows the mystery behind a High School soccer team’s plane crash. Eager to please and easy to overlook, Misty’s abundance of team spirit belies a hidden dark side.

Originally from Scottsdale, Arizona and the youngest in a family of five girls, the entire family moved to Los Angeles. By the time she was 6, Sammi had an agent and was lining up commercials, from Oil of Olay, which aired for two years, to McDonalds. Perhaps the most famous of them all was Pringles, which gave her the nickname of ‘The Pringles Girl.’
