New Orleans. Born and raised. I lived there until I was 19.

I think every metropolitan city has its pockets of - that's what makes them great.

The majority of work I do is in independent films, where you're lucky if you have five takes.

I'll read a script maybe twice, but I'll think about the role more than I'll rehearse lines.

I don't like a lot of rehearsing.

I think it kind of took being a character actor to kind of now enter into leading ladies.

The odds are not in your favor the older you get, especially if you're a woman in this business.
