For me, nothing has ever taken precedence over being a mother and having a family and a home.

To stay interested in acting, I have to keep trying stuff I've never done before.

What I love about photography, and it's the same thing I love about acting, really, is that it forces you, like, right into the moment, where you can't be distracted, where you can't be, like, thinking about other things or ahead of yourself or behind yourself.

Digital doesn't interest me. It's too many steps removed from the actual tactile thing. I still read books. I don't read online.

The thing with psychoanalysis is I know basically what happened in my childhood. I know where things went wrong and I know what my mother said at one point and what my father said at one point.

I went to the University of Minnesota to study art. I left the university to come to New York and live in Soho. I got involved with like a small kind of like experimental theater-mime company and we discovered that Étienne Decroux, a great mime, was still teaching in Paris so I went to study with him for several years.

I've got nothing left to lose at this point. The work I've done is out there.
