There were days that I worked all the time, without a layoff, or a rest, finishing one picture and reporting for another sometimes on the same day.
In my early days in Hollywood I tried to be economical. I designed my own clothes, much to my mother's distress.
As an actress, I was trained to show emotion I did not feel, or no emotion at all.
I was fine when it came to cheering up others, not so fine with myself.
I existed in a world that never is - the prison of the mind.
My departure from Hollywood was described as a walk-out. No one understood that I was cracking up.
