Subsequently, she moved to mainstream film and television. Her most prominent film roles included playing A.L., a camp counselor, alongside Bill Murray in the comedy Meatballs and Jackie Chan's girlfriend in The Big Brawl. She appeared in a number of television pilots through the 1980s, individual episodes and series, including The Young and the Restless, B. J. and the Bear and Night Court. Kristine then retired from acting, apparently to start a family (her Twitter profile indicates she is a mother).
According to her Twitter feed, she is back in Los Angeles again working as an actress, as of summer 2010. Her May 9, 2012 tweet indicates she just completed a film called "A Halloween Puppy" with Eric Roberts. Other cast members include Susan Olsen (Brady Bunch).

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“John Brown’s career for the last six weeks of his life was meteor-like, flashing through the darkness in which we live. I know of nothing so miraculous in our history.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“What exacerbates the strain in the working class is the absence of money to pay for services they need, economic insecurity, poor daycare, and lack of dignity and boredom in each partner’s job. What exacerbates it in upper-middle class is the instability of paid help and the enormous demands of the career system in which both partners become willing believers. But the tug between traditional and egalitarian models of marriage runs from top to bottom of the class ladder.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“In time your relatives will come to accept the idea that a career is as important to you as your family. Of course, in time the polar ice cap will melt.”
—Barbara Dale (b. 1940)
