Adam Rich Biography

Best known as Nicholas Bradford on the popular TV show Eight Is Enough, Brooklyn-born Adam Rich began acting on the series when he was just nine years old. He stayed with Eight Is Enough throughout its run, from 1977 through 1981, and a few years later he began providing the voice for Presto the Magician on the animated series Dungeons & Dragons. In 1996, author and then indie-magazine publisher Dave Eggers worked with Rich to run a fictional article in Might magazine announcing the actor's untimely death. Part parody, part practical joke, the stunt stuck with Rich so that years later, he continued to meet fans who'd thought he was dead. ~ Cammila Albertson, Rovi
