I don't think I'm very ambitious at all. But I seem to play people who have that quality.

I know many great actors who have small heads.

When I was in college, at Wheaton-I inadvertently got cast in a play, and I had a really great time doing it. I didnt know I had any knack for it, but I really enjoyed myself. It was a complete surprise.

If you work in casting, it's sort of not cool to want to act. A lot of people think that casting directors are frustrated actors, but it wasn't true with any of the casting people I knew.

I was a waitress. I was pretty good at it. I liked to solve those puzzles-you know, when to put the dinner order in, that sort of thing.

The celebrity-making machine-photographers, paparazzi, press and stuff like that-can be ruthless.

I'm not a public figure at all. I don't really go out a lot to places where there are people like those who sit at the bottom of your driveway.
