You always have to lie. I've been in plays that people don't enjoy and I pray that they lie to my face when I come outside.

The Grocery Manufacturers Association is behind the bills which have been trying to pre-empt states' labeling laws in the Senate. And they have a lot of money and power in Washington. So it's a classic David versus Goliath story, where corporate lobbying outweighs consumers' rights.

As artists, it's really important to take time to see what other art is happening and to know what's happening in the world.

I was never shielded from the realities of what it meant to be an artist and that made me afraid to be an artist because I wanted to know that my life was secure.

See, I will always shop, and that's sort of a problem. Clothes are always exploding out of my closet!

I spent my teens and early 20s shopping almost exclusively at thrift stores.

I've been an audience member for friends in plays that I don't enjoy and I have to lie to their faces. It's just part of that lifestyle unfortunately, especially in New York.
