Filmmaker Lynn Chen shared a picture of Pearlman with a dog and a cat on Twitter and wrote, “This is how I will remember Lindsey Pearlman. Effortlessly beautiful and talented. Hilarious. Compassionate. Unapologetic. She lit up every room. She listened intently on stage and off. She so loved animals. I am sorry to her family and all the communities who deeply adored her.”

According to a profile on her own website, Pearlman appeared in the TV adaptations of 'The Purge' and 'Chicago Justice.' She also had a lot of theatre experience in Chicago, where she grew up.
