‘Brady Bunch’ Star Florence Henderson’s Daughter Became An Actress, Too

Many fans know the late Florence Henderson for her role as Carol Brady on The Brady Bunch. Florence’s daughter, Barbara followed in her footsteps and even appeared on The Brady Bunch too! She made three appearances on the show, playing three different parts in 1970, 1972, and 1974. It seems the roles helped her catch the acting bug.

Barbara was known as Barbara Bernstein because her father is Ira Bernstein. Barbara continued acting as a child and later as an adult. She may be best known for her role as Buffy in the movie 9 to 5, starring another DYR favorite, Dolly Parton. She hasn’t done much acting since the ’80s, except a few roles as herself.
