Back in the late ’70s, few TV families were as memorable as the Bradfords from the ABC series Eight Is Enough. At the heart of this family was fourth child Susan, played by Susan Richardson. For five seasons, Richardson was a familiar face in American homes. Then, after the show ended, it seemed as if she simply vanished from the public eye.

So, what has the actor been up to since the Bradford family aired on U.S. television screens? Well, to be honest, life hasn’t always been easy for Richardson.
