Tracey Gold was well known to television audiences in the 1980s and ‘ 90s as the wholesome teenage sister on the long-running series Growing Pains. She co-starred for eight years alongside Kirk Cameron as brainy sister Carol Seaver in a picture-perfect American family. A working actress since the age of 4, she was a pretty and professional young star with a limitless future. But behind the smiles, Tracey was fighting the battle of her life. Photos of the shockingly thin Tracey faced readers from the cover of People magazine, revealing her struggle with an eating disorder that had plagued her for years. In this candid memoir, the actress recounts her offscreen troubles that viewers were unaware of at the time. Room to Grow is a moving account of a trip to hell and back. It is a journey of self-discovery and a chronicle of the very difficult lessons Tracey learned about coping in a society where emaciation is the ultimate ideal.
