As a theater actor I always wondered, 'Is there a place for me in Hollywood?

As an artist, I think it's critical for keeping yourself alive that you try to get your hands into something a little bit more intensely. It's one of the reasons why I love theater because you never actually let go of it and it never feels like there's a tremendous distance between the process and the product.

I so never went through a bad-girl period.

A day on a film set is maddening.

Im not your biggest girly girl.

I think, as an actor, theater is like one of the things that you feel most in control of and in charge of.

I want to do more independent film. I'm blessed to be working on really quality episodic television, which to me actually feels like a sort of 13-hour film.
