Tina Majorino is clearly one of the most talented young actresses to come out of the early 1990s. She starred in three feature films that opened within three months of each other. She began her career by appearing in national television commercials before playing Sophie in the ABC television series, _"Camp Wilder" who quickly befriends Napoleon and his hilarious Mexican side-kick Pedro.
