This pretty, petite (5'2"), brunette began her career as an actor, including a stint with the famed improv group The Groundlings, but has found greater fame behind the scenes in features and TV.Throughout the early 1980s, the Kansas-born player found work in small roles in front of the camera in several TV-movies and the occasional feature. Often cast much younger than her years, Stoner first caught audiences' attention in two TV-movie sequels to the long-running "Little House on the Prairie". Her feature roles were also limited to generally bit parts (as in her debut in 1984's "Impulse").
