I grew up in Manhattan and, since my father was a playwright, all I ever wanted to be was a stage actress.

The goal seems to me at times just to be business first.

I know what people want to hear is the connection with the son, Roger, when you have a child. I would love to tell that there was an epiphany as to what it is to be a mom, but I didn't feel any difference there.

Doing the right thing has power.

I don't think you should exploit your own pain.

I am very lucky, because for the most part people are very nice to me, and I am still able to go about my life and ride the subway and all that.

The entertainment industry is terrified of silence.
