I couldn't imitate anyone if I wanted to.

I'm kind of floating out there as an artist. I'm in a safe place where I can play a girlfriend or a best friend or a mommy or a lawyer, but a huge part of me is unused. I'm classically trained, historically inclined and somewhat revolutionary by nature, so I'm frustrated as an artist.

I did everything pretty cliche as an actor in New York. I read the trades, I sent out 'head shots.'

I love the theater. I love being on stage; I love the live audience. I also love dressing up and all of the make-believe.

I went to an all-girls private school, where we played field hockey and lacrosse.

Raising children uses every bit of your being - your heart, your time, your patience, your foresight, your intuition to protect them, and you have to use all of this while trying to figure out how to discipline them.
