I had piano lessons at five and started guitar at ten, but although music and acting was always around me, my parents never pressured me into it.

There was never any pressure on me to go into the business, but I was always aware of it. I'd go on the set with my father and he and my mother would always be singing.

When I look back on my life, I wonder how I survived - my mother said I had a guardian angel.

Many people have fond memories of 'The Monkees.' I fondly remember it, too.

The Monkees are to the Beatles what 'Star Trek' is to NASA. They are both totally valid in their contexts.

I'm now learning how to distinguish when I'm acting and when I'm not acting - offstage as well as onstage.
