Picking up the camera, Moon Frye said, was her reaction to a childhood spent with the lens focused on her: “I wanted to flip the perspective and document everyone else. She took her Sharp camcorder everywhere: On group outings to Magic Mountain, to the hospital before her breast reduction, to a field in Antelope Valley where she tripped on mushrooms.
Her circle of friends included Green, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, David Arquette, Stephen Dorff and Heather McComb, all of whom sat for interviews in “Kid 90” to reflect on their adolescences. The actress - who was cast as Punky at age 7, beating out 1,000 girls to play the precocious youngster - became something of an unofficial ringleader of kid stars in Hollywood. Moon Frye spent nine months combing through hundreds of hours of her footage to create the film, which offers an intimate look at what it was like to be young and famous in an era before social media. It was a journey, she said, that has not only produced a new documentary - Hulu’s “Kid 90,” out March 12 - but also led her back to herself. She’d always held onto them - they were well-preserved in big Tupperware containers - but it wasn’t until 2017 that she felt called to revisit them.

She’d gotten married at age 22 and went on to have four children with her husband, producer Jason Goldberg. Shortly after her 40th birthday, the actress started to question her identity.
Always eager to solve a problem - even one as daunting as administering CPR to her best friend, who got locked in a refrigerator during a game of hide-and-seek. So self-possessed that she was somehow able to pull off a rainbow wardrobe.

And after being taunted by boys who called her “Punky Boobster” because of her size 38DD chest, she got a breast reduction at age 15, using the experience as a platform to address teenage body insecurities. In interviews, she spoke proudly about being a virgin.
