[edit] Trivia
- Despite having portraying a karate student on Growing Pains, Ami is NOT a real-life martial artist ("All they taught me was one move for the taping," she insists). Her husband, however, is a retired world-champion kickboxer.
- When Ami was young, her mother tied bells on her shoes...so as to know where the little girl was at all times.
