Answer: Eve Plumb

'Marcia, Marcia, Marcia' - Jan clearly had some middle sibling issues! While Eve has appeared on both TV and stage since 'The Brady Bunch' (and a number of spinoffs) ended, and has also achieved some success as an artist, her role as Jan Brady looks to remain her most memorable.

He has garnered a new generation of fans with his voice-over work in recent years, most notably as the Mayor of Quahog on the animated TV series, 'The Family Guy'.
