Career

Bure guest-starred in roles on shows such as St. Elsewhere, Growing Pains, and Who's the Boss? In 1985, Bure portrayed Jennifer Bates in an episode of the sitcom Punky Brewster. In 1987, she had a role as the youngest sister of Eric Stoltz in the teen comedy Some Kind of Wonderful.

In September 1987, Bure began the most prominent role of her career on the ensemble sitcom Full House, as Donna Jo "D.J." Tanner, the oldest daughter of Bob Saget's Danny Tanner. Bure was cast throughout the 8 seasons of the series until its end in 1995.

While on Full House, she was also featured Camp Cucamonga, an adventure comedy. Cameron guest-starred in the failed pilot Real Mature, and in an episode of Bill Nye The Science Guy as "Candace the Science Gal". She also appeared in the Tom Hanks and Sally Field feature film Punchline.

Bure hosted the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards in 1990 with Full House co-star Dave Coulier and David Faustino, and again in 1994 with Joey Lawrence and Marc Weiner.

After

After Full House ended in 1995, Bure guest-starred on Cybill and Boy Meets World.

Bure also appeared in numerous NBC made-for-TV movies, including No One Would Tell, playing an abused teen; She Cried No, as a date-raped teen; and NightScream, a mystery.

Bure took a self-imposed hiatus from television and film after giving birth to focus on her family. In the 2000s, she appeared as an interviewee on the retrospective I Love the '80s and I Love the '80s Strikes Back. She would later co-host 50 Cutest Child Stars: All Grown Up on the E! network, along with Keshia Knight Pulliam of The Cosby Show fame.

In 2007, Bure guest-starred on the sitcom That's So Raven. The following year, she co-starred with Randy Travis in The Wager and starred with Tom Arnold in the television movie Moonlight and Mistletoe for the Hallmark Channel in 2008. Cameron returned to television in 2009 and was cast in Make It or Break It,[2] which ended in 2012.[3]

On March 4, 2014, Bure was announced to compete on season 18 of Dancing with the Stars, partnering with Mark Ballas.[4] The couple made it to the finals and ended in third place behind Meryl Davis and Amy Purdy who took first and secondplace, respectively.

It was announced in 2015 that Bure would reprise her role as D.J. Tanner in the 2016 Netflix spinoff Fuller House, her character now going by D.J. Tanner-Fuller. Filming began that July 2015. Bure was a co-host of The View in season 19 and 20.[5][6] In March 2016, Fuller House was picked up for a second season.[7] On December 8, 2016, Bure announced that she was leaving The View due to commitment clashes between Fuller House and Hallmark Channel projects and family life.[8] In January 2019, Fuller House was renewed for its fifth and final season to air later that year.[9] The series concluded on June 2, 2020.[10]

Bure has acted in a number of Hallmark channel movies, including the 2017 Switched for Christmas. Bure is also the executive producer of a one hour Christmas special called Christmas in America, featuring people all over America as they celebrate the holiday season.[11] Bure also served as the host of the 26th annual Movieguide Awards for the network on February 8, 2019, along with her daughter Natasha.[12]
