My daughter used to sit and watch Murder, She Wrote. I tried to watch with her, but I fell asleep.

You just have to be open and ready, and let it all happen.

Unfortunately, because the theater is always a poor relation when it comes to making the nut, it's not easy to get the audience in to see a play, unless you have a name that is recognizable, that the audience wants to see and is prepared to pay the $125 to see.

I've worked with the greatest actors, and they're all gone. This is what's so desperate to me.

I very seldom said no, and I was aided and abetted by my husband, who realized that the one thing I could do was to be a very good actress, by his note.

A sitcom. I hate that word.

I started in London, as a kid. My mother knew I had sort of an inbred talent. She was an actress, so I inherited it from her. But I think I got a lot of it from my grandfather, who was a great politician.
