When I was doing theater for all those years in New York, I did a lot of classical theater, wearing big corsets and big dresses and doing dialects. It's interesting that once I moved to TV, I'm playing these scrappy, contemporary toughies.

The truth is I quite like to dress in jeans and a woolly jumper.

I grew up in Houston, in a pretty urbane setting.

AMC has a track record for finding actors who have been working actors but not names yet and casting them.

It's very nice to be in a show where your vanity is completely out of the picture.

It's kind of part of human nature to want to know the truth or want to be in on the secret. For stories that focus in on that - like whodunits - it's easy to get drawn into.

I like laughter around me.
