Michael Landon, who portrayed Pa Charles Ingalls, died in 1991 after battling pancreatic cancer. Melissa Gilbert portrayed Laura Ingalls and has gone on to star in many series and movies in what has been an impressive career.

Alison Arngrim, who played Nellie Olesen, became a successful voiceover artist with roles in famous animations. She also held major television roles. Other stars from the series have all gone on to enjoy success in their respective careers.
