I actually got more attention from one episode of 'The Sopranos' than I did from two years of 'The L Word.'

I feel that as the world becomes more and more multicultural, it's a good tool to be able to speak another language.

My great-great-grandfather was a shah back in the 1800s. Unfortunately, I don't have any gold coins or jewels to show for it.

I did a lot of theater growing up, and in college I was in the musical 'Chicago.'

It's fun to work on location because you get the look and feel of everything, but it's nice to be on a stage because you can control the elements.

Honestly, as an actor, all I need to know, the way I kind of look at a scene, is like a puzzle. There are certain puzzle pieces that are bigger than others, and all I need to know is if this is going to fit here to make this part of the puzzle work.

I don't really like 'acting' - I like things to feel as natural as possible.
