My life has often been described as 'from rags to riches' but in fact, the Ross's were never raggedy.

People can take your name and write a book about you and they make money off of it. How is the public supposed to know you're not authorizing that book? As soon as you make a big stink about it it only makes the book sell more.

My children come first and the career comes in around that.

I want an autobiography without revealing any personal information.

Being a parent is very important to me.

You can have a lot of New York and still see what's going on in the rest of the world, I think - like in China.

I have three girls, and I say the same thing to them. I'm not involved in their careers because I've learned that it's important for them to stand on their own two feet. They'll feel better and prouder of themselves if they do.
