At the University of Maryland, my first year I started off planning to major in art because I was interested in theatre design, stage design or television design.

There was a little afternoon show that was called Afternoon. Back in those days in television, most local stations had a midday show for housewives that had a series of things. It was like a variety show for midday.

It's a wonderful life and I love it.
