Sally Boyden

Sally Boyden began her television career as a performer on "Young Talent Time" (YTT) in 1973, at the age of seven - the youngest performer in the history of the show. While most YTT members waited until reaching age 16 to leave the show, Boyden left in 1976, aged ten, to concentrate on her solo career as an actress. The Australian Women's Weekly described Sally as "Performing both live and on television, she will broaden her horizons as Australia's youngest star. She is a 10-year-old prodigy; a whimsical mixture of seasoned sophisticate and freckle-faced kid-next-door." After leaving YTT, Boyden issued her debut album, "The Littlest Australian", early in 1976, which was certified as a gold record by mid-year. She was the youngest Australian ever to receive a gold record. In November of that year, she commenced filming in the starring role in a TV film, "Barnaby and Me", which was a co-production of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC-TV) and United States-based Transatlantic
