Famous for her villainous role as “Nellie Oleson” in the hit TV series, ‘Little House on the Prairie’, Alison continues to make waves. Her memoir, “Confessions of A Prairie Bitch: How I Survived Nellie Oleson and Learned to Love Being Hated” is a New York Times best seller.
Alison shares jaw-dropping stories about growing up as a Hollywood kid, beginning as a resident of Hollywood’s famed Chateau Marmont at the tender age of 4 and accidentally taking a massive hit of LSD at age 8. Later, her day job was TV’s first child villain on America’s most wholesome show, while spending her underage nights in LA punk rock clubs.
