Ringwald was a member of the so-called Brat Pack, which became famous in 1985, when, after a night of going out with a reporter of the New Yorker Magazine, a reporter published a sensationalist article calling her and her fellow actors Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, Emilio Estevez, and Anthony Michael Hall "the Brat Pack".
Among this actress's movies are Pretty Horses, The Pick Up Artist, Pretty In Pink, and the movie that got the "Brat Pack" together, The Breakfast Club.
During the period that Ringwald was Hollywood's top female teen, she appeared in countless covers of such publications as Tiger Beat, Teen, and many others.
Ringwald is currently participating in plays in London, and she did some Broadway before moving to England.
