 Best known for her role as DJ Tanner on ABCs hit sitcom Full House, Candace is counted among the most beloved and respected personalities of her generation.
At age five, Candace broke into the business by participating in a number of memorable television commercials. Soon after, she quickly landed multiple guest starring roles on primetime hits such as St. Elsewhere, Growing Pains, and Whos the Boss.
In 1986, 10 year-old Candace got the call to audition for the roll of DJ Tanner on Full House. Candace impressed the studio executives and producers so much, that they delayed taping the pilot to allow Candace to complete work on her other obligations. The eight-year run of Full House ranks it amongst the most successful series of all time.
During her hiatuses from Full House and immediately following the series finale, Candace drew significant critical acclaim while tackling challenging dramatic roles. Her stirring portrayal of an abused teenager in No One Would Tell landed Candace a place amongst the most sought after television actresses in town. Following that success Candace starred in She Cried No, and Night Scream for NBC. All three pictures scored ratings victories for the network. During that time, she guest starred on such network hits as Cybil and Boy Meets World.
Candace entered the world of pop culture when she was cast in John Hughes Some Kind of Wonderful. Her feature film credits also include Punchline with Tom Hanks and Sally Field and the Cohen Brothers Frankenstein Sings.
Over the past few years, Candace has been on a self-imposed hiatus in support of her husband, NHL hockey star Valeri Bure and their three beautiful children, ages 3, 5 & 6. The Bure family spends a majority of their time in South Florida, where Val played for the Florida Panthers. They travel during the summer months between Russia, Europe and Los Angeles to spend time with family and friends. Candace is currently Executive Producing and starring in "The Krew,' a video for children that's very close to her heart. "The Krew,' available through Amazon.com, is a half-hour awareness video aimed at helping children avoid and deal with dangerous situations in every day life.
