I literally felt like a freak, which is another aspect of the role of Sally that I relate to: total outsider.
And to be different is great. You don't want to be the same.
I was a full foot taller than any child my age.
My way was not to be the petite, gorgeous, little cheerleader. My way of getting by was making people laugh.
I was born in Washington, D.C., and I was raised in Milwaukee.
I was such a dork. I was too big. I was really gangly.
