I've worked with a lot of great directors.

I encounter really tough men and women who are just so harsh, you can't bend them. You do come across these kinds of people in every profession-just unyielding.

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.

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

The movies I'm in not a lot of people see, but it's alright.

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 give a character room to breathe, they come alive.
