I loved the stage and then grew to love the camera.

I would take up any small job on the sets, just so that I could hang around with the hope of getting noticed.

When I was first starting out, if you were acting on television, it was a real stigma.

Television really does offer still great parts for women, cable in particular.

Sure I faced the troubles and challenges that most actors and actresses face until they get noticed, but I was always confident of myself and my capabilities.

I am an actress and acting is my passion... period!

A friend of mine described it this way: When they were born it was like a meteor landed in our house and blew everything apart. We had to just put all the pieces back.
