I had a really scary pregnancy and a very difficult delivery. My daughter and I are lucky to be alive.

People are drawn to watching things that are dramatic. And the tighter a relationship is, the more dramatic it can be. That's something family lends itself to. Everybody has family, somewhere, somehow. Those relationships are always very complex. This takes it to almost Greek-tragedy-level heights. That's fun to watch, although it's very uncomfortable. It explores the darkest sense of family.

I have sort of the career where, if you are a fan, you've been following me for a while, and you really like something that I've done, so meeting those people is always a really gracious experience.

I remember when I took the role on E.R., I thought, 'I haven't really been able to play a working class woman. I've played girls, I've played funny, but I haven't played a working class woman. That sounds like something I'd like to do.

I love to work on a set whether it's mostly men or mostly women, but there's something about being in a community of women that changes the energy.

I'm trying not to put pressure on myself to decide what to do at this moment, and just sort of go with what's happening.
