I do think that the imagination you create yourself when you're reading, to create the tone and the accent of the world, is an individual accomplishment that someone is imposing upon you by listening to them read it. Because you're listening to their interpretation, and their emphasis would probably be different from the one that your brain makes while you're reading it.

I began my career in Los Angeles and started working fairly quickly.

The only thing I haven't done as an actor, other than Thai puppet theater somewhere, is act on a Broadway stage.

I'd like to be doing quality acting in a quality role and making as many people as possible happy.

Samuel Beckett is the person that I read the most of - certainly the person whose books I own the most of. Probably 800 or 900, maybe 1,000 books of just Samuel Beckett. By him, about him, in different languages, etc. etc. Notebooks of his, letters of his that I own, personal letters - not to me, but I bought a bunch of correspondence of his. I love his humor, and I'm always blown away by his syntax and his ideas. So I keep reading those.

The opportunity to carry water every night to James Earl Jones on stage is a dream come true.

You take jobs so much of the time when you don't need to necessarily work for a living, but it becomes important who you are going to work with.
