1996 was a film intensive year with roles in The First Wives Club (1996), If Lucy Fell (1996), and Mars Attacks! (1996). More substantial film roles soon followed, starting with a role opposite Nicolas Cage in Honeymoon in Vegas (1992) (which foreshadowed her comedic talent), Hocus Pocus (1993) and Ed Wood (1994).A big Woody Allen fan, she starred opposite the renowned filmmaker in the television movie The Sunshine Boys (1996), and that same year, she landed a starring role in Miami Rhapsody (1995). After more television appearances in series and made-for-TV movies including A Year in the Life (1986), The Room Upstairs (1987) and Dadah Is Death (1988), Sarah finally landed the role of Steve Martin's bubbly lover in the 1991 comedy L.A. Sarah was having lots of fun, although she had yet to land a star-turning role. Since Square Pegs (1982) did not last more than a year, Sarah moved on to supporting film roles in movies such as Footloose (1984), Firstborn (1984), and the lead role in the teenage film Girls Just Want to Have Fun (1985). She landed a role in the made-for-TV movie My Body, My Child (1982), before being cast as one of the lead roles in the 1982 sitcom Square Pegs (1982), as high-schooler Patty Green.Once a graduate, Sarah decided to pursue a full-time acting career rather than further her education. After a year as the free-spirited orphan, Sarah attended Dwight Morrow High School, while continuing to add more credits to her acting resume. Already a professional performer (she studied at the American Ballet School and the Professional Children's School), Sarah was cast in \"The Sound of Music\" (along with four of her siblings), and landed the lead in the Broadway run of \"Annie\". Her father was of Eastern European Jewish ancestry, and her mother had German, and some English, roots.Trained in singing and ballet, Sarah was cast in the Broadway production of \"The Innocents\", which prompted her family to relocate to New Jersey. Sarah now had 3 full siblings and 4 half siblings. Her parents divorced, and her mother later remarried to Paul Forste and had four more children, bringing the total to eight.
