I just hope to work with great people, and do things that are challenging for me and that I can be proud of and not have to hide my face about. Those are my guidelines.

I just want to play interesting characters, and I want to work with the best directors I can work with.

People do come up to me quite a lot. I get called all of it. I rarely get called my name; it's usually "Hey, Dr. Edwards!" or "Algernon." The most common thing is, "You're the black doctor on that show!" I'll take any of it, because I've definitely been called much worse things.

I love to sing. I'm definitely not a very good singer, but when I'm in my shower I get down for sure.

The surgeries were the hardest scenes for me because it's literally balancing so many balls in the air, at the same time, and each surgery is different.

I want to shift my career back to shows like The Knick. I prefer the classic drama structure.
