Television itself is an intimate medium. It's in your house. You're visiting with these people... Not everybody's going to like it, just like not everybody likes everybody on the playground. I mean, that's life - especially if your job is to just go out there and be yourself. ↗

My playground was the theatre. I'd sit and watch my mother pretend for a living. As a young girl, that's pretty seductive. ↗
