Kelley's Emmy Award-winning television series ''Picket Fences'' for several seasons. She also made guest appearances in the TV show ''Poltergeist: The Legacy'' (1996), as seer Christina, and was the voice of Skittles candies in their long-running "Taste the Rainbow" ad campaign. Rubinstein was also known for her outspoken activism for little people and her early participation in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
==Early life==
Rubinstein was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on 28 May 1933 to Jewish immigrant parents from Poland, Dolores and George Rubinstein.〔https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KQ6J-4H7〕 She was the youngest of three children and the only little person in her family. Rubinstein did not become comfortable with her short stature until she was an adult.〔 In a 1992 interview with the ''Chicago Sun-Times'', Rubinstein told the newspaper that she "had a rough childhood, () I became very verbally facile... I learned to meet everyone head-on."〔
She stood just 4 feet 3 inches (129.54 cm) tall〔 due to a deficiency of the anterior pituitary gland, which produces growth hormone. Commenting in 2002 on the challenges of being a very short-statured person, Rubinstein said, "Little People are ''societally'' handicapped. They have about two minutes to present themselves as equals—and if they don’t take advantage of that chance, then people fall back on the common assumption that 'less' is less."
Rubinstein won a scholarship to the University of Pittsburgh, where she earned her bachelor's degree in bacteriology and became a sister of the national sorority Phi Sigma Sigma.〔 She moved to Berkeley, California, at the age of 25,〔 studied at the University of California, Berkeley, and worked as a medical lab technician at blood banks.〔
