You give up a lot when you enter the years of parenting. It's a sacrifice.

I moved to Seattle when I was two or three years old. Had my early education there, and would spend summers on the farm in Maryland. Then I went to boarding school in New Hampshire, to St. Paul's School. From there, I moved to London.

In the same way that Shakespeare was writing very much for his time, he was also unearthing observations that would last for generations beyond him.

Personally, my taste is towards development of a character, as well as the resolution of a story plot. I like to find both, if I can.

By the time I had finished my studies at St. Paul's School, I knew I wanted to be an actor.
