I was 12 when I got a small part in a movie in Texas. And in my spare time, I play with my dogs and write music and go out with my friends.

I was always a huge fan of Nora Ephron.

You don't need shock value things to make a movie successful.

When I was a kid - and I don't know why, it's the most random thing - I wanted to be a speech therapist for little kids. I knew I wanted to do something with kids.

They think that I am a lot younger than I am. Everyone who meets me is always like, “Oh, are you the youngest sister?” “No, I'm older than Hilary.” I think it's just because I have never really played older than myself or even my own age yet.

With theater, you have to really be able to listen and to respond to other people on stage. Youre all constantly on your toes. And then with film and television, you can get a second take and things like that.

I always feel happy when I'm making smart decisions with food - instead of focusing on what I shouldn't eat, I focus on what I should eat. It's all about being happy and feeling good!
