Patty McCormack
(“The Bad Seed”)
By the time 10-year-old McCormack lensed her part as pint-sized serial killer Rhoda Penmark in 1956’s “The Bad Seed,” she was already something of an old hand at setting Henry Jones on fire, having essayed the role on Broadway since 1954. She earned an Oscar nomination for her trouble, and enjoyed a long career, sans tap shoes, afterward.
