Bonsell is still remembered for his popular character of Andrew Keaton on "Family Ties" and Alexander Rozhenko on "Star Trek: The Next Generation."

REMEMBERING THE ACTING DAYS

Speaking about his beloved sci-fi character, Bonsell explained to "Star Trek" in an interview that he always knew his role on the popular show was going to be a recurring one.

"I was very busy around that time with other roles, too, so I was always running around to different jobs."

For the show, Bonsall also had to put on a lot of makeup, which often got frustrating. However, the experience was always a wonderful one, recalled Bonsall.

"It definitely helped me stay in character, as much as a kid that age could. I felt like a warrior," Bonsall further stated, elaborating on the importance of his heavy makeup.

Earlier in 2010, Bonsall also made headlines for all the wrong reasons after he was sentenced to two years of probation over a row with a friend.

He pleaded guilty to felony menacing and third-degree assault. However, the court decreed that his charges would not appear in his records if he kept himself out of trouble for the following two years.
