My job is about playing people. And I think once you lose touch with people, what do you play?

I'm certainly not very book smart, but I started traveling at 16, and it has enriched me in ways I could never begin to explain.

I think that we're all continually searching for who we are, and that's ever-evolving and changing.

It's hard to find really original, compelling works of fiction, for women especially. I find that these true life stories about these women that I'm so blessed to play are some of the most compelling stories, and the truth is stranger than fiction.

If there's someone that I just wan to work with in the future, I set a general meeting and I say, "I'm a really big fan. I want to meet you. I'd love to collaborate with you someday and hopefully you'll remember that for the next time you have something that I could be right for."

There's so much more to life than looking a certain way.

I pretty much have made a career out of playing real life people.
