My mother was a singer, and both of her sisters were singers. There was always music around.
I pursued a theatre career, and Hollywood came calling.
It's a joy to work where I live, and come home and sleep in my own bed.
I didn't have to do paper routes. I'd sing for 5 bucks a crack at weddings and church functions; I'd have four or five on some Saturdays.
I was an actor for over a year before I ever saw a play.
For my first acting job I played the role of Ensign Pulver in 'Mr. Roberts' at the Manitoba Theatre Centre.
