She appeared briefly on the soap operas "The Secret Storm" (1954), and "Another World" (1964). When her brother, Philip McKeon won a role on the TV series, "Alice" (1976), the family moved to Los Angeles. Her first real acting break came when she did the short-lived TV series "Stone" (1979) and guested on "Starsky and Hutch" (1975). The producers of "The Facts of Life" (1979) were so impressed by Nancy's performance as the street-wise girl in a pilot called "Dusty", they decided to sign her to play Jo on "The Facts of Life".
