In 1992, the true crime made-for-television film When No One Would Listen was nominated for a Young Artist Award for Best Actress in a Television Movie, owing to Anndi McAfee's acting in the role of the main lead's young daughter, Maggie Cochran. McAfee's performance was well-received by critics, despite it being one of her earliest acting roles. In 2004, McAfee graduated from California State University, Northridge with an M.A. degree in communication studies.
