TV is sort of the only way to go for an actress my age to make a decent salary; with independent films, you just can't.

The worst is when I talk myself into something. Sometimes you take things because you want to work with a certain actor, or you want to work with a director, even if the script or the part's not that great.

Box office success has never meant anything. I couldn't get a film made if I paid for it myself. So I'm not 'box office' and never have been, and that's never entered into my kind of mind set.

If I had to start over, I'd pursue photography - probably to the exclusion of acting.

Photography was a blessing because it filled my time.

I like to work in costumes, makeup, and hair that allow me tremendous freedom.

I like playing characters who are out there on the edge, where they can explode at any moment or fall off the precipice.
