I usually dive head first and am really excited about that changes.

The key things I learned as a hospital administrator are to be organized, communicate, and be flexible.

I think horror films always have to be as simple as possible.

A lot of what I do as a showrunner is anxiety control. People get nervous when they don't know what's going on, so a big part of my job is making sure everyone has all of the information all of the time.

One of the things I've learned by working on the 'Walking Dead' and other TV shows is to be more tolerant of other people's process.

I went to NYU undergraduate, then for a Master's in English, and got a summer job at St. Vincent's. I was a ward clerk handling everything in an intensive care unit.

In TV and film, a little goes a long way. I see the show as horror so a lot of the [violence] is suggested. But it is violent. It is gory. I don't see any need to up the gore. Just to keep it as real and visceral as possible.
