Let's make this birthday one to remember.

54 years old (Born on January 07, 1970)

American, Other; She is famous from Bustin` Loose.

Tami was first fitted with her new `leggy` at nine months old. (Much of this info comes from the pics of magazine articles on her site.) (tamiluchow.com) Growing up she was taught that Leggi didn`t give her special privileges - so much that she won`t use a handicap parking spot if you force her! SHE does NOT need that spot, someone else does! Tami has always called her artificial right leg "Leggy." (tamiluchow.com) It was during the time period of the filming of the movie "Bustin` Loose" that Richard Pryor had `his accident` while free basing crack cocaine, setting himself on fire while highly intoxicated on Bacardi Rum 151. While reported at the time as an accident, he later admitted that it was a suicide attempt and the `accident while drunk` report was released to protect his name. Oddly by coincidence, the existing storyline of Bustin` Loose did have one problem child who was a firebug. Therefore there were several references to fire in the movie, such as Richard putting his hat, on fire, on his head, putting a burning cigar in his pocket, and later saying to costar Cicily Tyson, "That sets me on fire!" Specific birth stats : Tami was born two months premature, missing two fingers, three toes and the lower half of her right leg. "The doctors counseled my parents to name me quickly, because it seemed unlikely that I would survive." (New York Times Magazine - 3/12/89) (tamiluchow.com)

Looking at the line-up of growing (in size) artificial legs, you notice a little one, damaged. Five year-old Tami ran into the water at camp and somehow damaged her `leggi` and she had to leave camp early to have another one made for her. (tamiluchow.com)

Tami can not only ski, but ice skate and roller skate as well, although in the learning process with roller skates, the little girl fell and broke her arm.
