'Small Wonder' star Jerry Supiran flat broke, blames stripper A former child actor, who enjoyed fleeting fame on the 1980s comedy "Small Wonder," is reportedly broke and homeless - and blames a stripper for his troubles. Down-on-his-luck actor Jerry Supiran, 39, also claimed a crooked money man contributed to his current situation, living under a bridge in central California, according to The National Enquirer. The former child actor played adorable preteen Jamie Lawson, who was the brother of his adopted sister, Vicki, a robot made by their dad. "When I was 18, I dated a stripper and she took what was left of my trust fund - then one of my advisers stole a half-million dollars from me," Supiran told the supermarket tab. The has-been actor's final stop to homelessness came when he after losing his job as a waiter. "I've worked at different steakhouses for the last 15 years," he said. But two years ago, I was laid off from a restaurant in Henderson, Nev., due to the economy. I haven't been able to find a job since. In addition to "Small Wonder," Supiran has credits for "Little House on the Prairie," "St. Elsewhere," "Mr. Belvedere" and "Highway to Heaven." "It's been very tough," Supiran said. I had to move back to central California where my brother lives with his family. And while he helps me with hot meals and a shower, he doesn't have the room for me to stay there. So I either sleep at the homeless shelter I volunteer at, or under a local bridge. Go to the Post for more.
