Three words: Jonathan Taylor Thomas. He was sooo popular with his age group, but I think adults knew who he was too, didn't they? It helped that he was on one of the top rated TV shows in the country at the time. I always saw him as a Corey (Feldman or Haim). Since the first book was written in 1986, I always figured they used a younger Corey.

So then Cam Geary is a semi-crazy young man who will either grow up to dress like Michael Jackson, develop a severe drug problem, or both? Poor Mary Anne. She'll be heart broken. (Actually, that makes sense. Most child stars end up messed up for whatever reason. It's not likely that Cam Geary would escape the curse. Mary Anne would probably watch him on The Surreal Life while she's home from college for a weekend. )

I wouldn't say most child stars end up messed up. You just hear about the ones that do.

when I was reading the series as a kid, I pictured Cam Geary as Tommy Puett, the actor who played Tyler Benchfield on "Life Goes On". I googled him and found pictures, but refrained from posting them due to his huge and scary MULLET.

I definitely get the "slightly older JTT" vibe from him. I always pictured him as being about 15, maybe 16, and assumed that most people over about the age of 18 wanted to throw tomatoes at him while the younger girls raved about him.

From the looks of the song names, it sounds exactly like what Cam Geary recorded. Awesome.
