Kerri Green (born January 14, 1967) is an American actress.
Green was born in Fort Lee, New Jersey. Green attended Pascack Hills High School in Montvale, New Jersey.[1]
She performed as a young teen in several movies including Summer Rental (1985) with co-star John Candy. Her big break came in the 1985 film The Goonies, in which she portrayed the role of cheerleader-turned-adventurer Andrea "Andy" Carmichael. She gained yet more critical acclaim for her performance in Lucas (1986). However, her next film Three for the Road (1987) alongside Charlie Sheen and Alan Ruck did not fare as well. She performed in an independent film called Blue Flame and appeared in several episodes of the television sitcom Mad About You as Paul's secretary. She then took a break from acting to study art at Vassar College.
Green eventually co-founded a movie production company, Independent Women Artists, with Bonnie Dickenson and co-wrote and produced a film about teen pregnancy called Bellyfruit (1999).
