Being a single girl in New York it's what you should be doing in your twenties!

I looked around one stage school when I was maybe nine. It just scared the bejesus out of me. I was incredibly open, and the girls seemed fierce and determined.

I grew up around horses, but acting and riding on camera is a whole different thing.

Drama school is fundamentally practical. I didn't write any essays, so I came out with a BA honors degree in acting.

Sometimes I feel like the kid left out - the weirdo with the silver hair that no one likes to talk to.

My father always says, ‘Never trust anyone who has a TV bigger than their bookshelf.’ So I make sure I read. Back at home, I just put up a massive bookcase and asked everyone I know and love to help me fill it with their favorite books. It’s been quite nice because I’ve learned a lot about my friends and family from what they’ve been giving me. A book says a lot about a person.
