Yes, that happened all the time! But the kids usually took it in stride. (Publicolor actually wasn't volunteer, I was on staff for four years.)

I’m glad it didn’t become anything too uncomfortable or distracting for you, or get in the way of the work you were doing. I’m sure it would have been awkward for you at the time if you were trying to lay low or not draw attention to yourself. (Also, sorry for the misunderstanding; for some reason I must have thought you were volunteering for the organization when I posted that!)

Was wondering, have you ever been recognized as a child star when babysitting, or as part of your Pubilcolor volunteering when you lived in New York City? I wonder if someone might have picked up a DVD of one of your movies or grew up watching you and put two and two together.
