This famous set of twins is celebrating a birthday. Having spanned a length of time reaching from my daughter in her 20's age group to my grand-daughters age group. Many girls like the several in our family have loved the Olson Twins since they were young.

The twins and their parents are only part of the family as there are several other siblings. The Olsens would divorce in 1995



The twins started acting at less than a year of age. The star role was Michelle Tanner on ABC sitcom Full House. For the next 8 years the twins would become well known as the youngest Tanner girl Michelle. During those years the twins would appear in films and videos as well as on T.V.
