While getting my exercise on off of Diamond head, my friend, daughter and I stopped at the Aloha station across from the Coffee Bean and lo and behold I am looking at the newspaper and realize there is this pic of this little girl that looks way familiar. Well...I finally figured out why she looked so familiar. It was Ryan's daughter on the Honolulu Advertiser stand.

Re: I saw Ryan and Jen's daughter
Wow. Those are still around, eh? I presume this is what OahuGirl is talking about.
I've gotten reports of Katie sightings from Kona to Kapa'a, and of course all over Honolulu. Katie, of course, is always tickled when she's recognized.
The photo was taken maybe three years ago, now, when she was a student at Voyager -- the charter school in Kakaako. There was indeed a release passed around to everyone in the class, as the shoot was for a "special advertising insert" on schools published in The Advertiser.
Oddly enough, Katie didn't make an appearance in that insert, but lo and behold, she's the star kid on these newspaper rack promo cards scattered all over the state. I guess that release form afforded wide rights in the use of the image beyond that planned publication. Fortunately, she's used to living in public.

Here's a hypothetical situation...
Suppose I was casting an ad (tv or print) for the S-B (or PBN...or Hawaii Hochi...or MidWeek) and the specs called for an adorable, outgoing, bright little girl in the 9-11 age range. I wouldn't even need to go thru my files to think of Katie. And...suppose Katie auditioned and was hired for the part. I wouldn't expect a parent to understand "product conflicts" or, after 3 years, even realize their child had one! Lo and behold, the HA ad runs AND the S-B POS ad is still in place. Both papers would have every reason to be angry and seek to undo the situation.
That said...no laws have been broken. It's just that, in advertising, there's an understood "rule" of exclusivity...unless it's a Screen Actors Guild job which demands exclusivity thru a contract. But, I digress...
This is an interesting situation...if one is a casting director. Otherwise, it's all probably terribly boring! Ryan, don't tell the HA, but I think Katie deserves some remuneration!

Re: I saw Ryan and Jen's daughter
I had the good fortune of meeting Miss Katie my last visit to Honolulu.
Miss Katie is such a charming and precocious young girl, that after having met her, I thought to myself that if I ever get married at this stage of my life, the first thing my wife and I would do is adopt a girl just like her. (I'm getting a bit long in the tooth to consider raising a newborn)Then I realized that's impossible: Miss Katie is clearly one of a kind!Last edited by Surfingfarmboy; June 26, 2007, 11:22 PM.
