Acting is really only part of my life. I'm addicted to it.

It was in high school that I first became interested in acting. We put on lots of plays.

Maybe subconsciously I've kept activism separate from acting because it's important to me in a more profound way.

I feel a little guilty only being an actor.

I live in New York, and when you're older and widowed, it's a perfect place because you just don't feel lonely there, and, luckily, I like my own company, too.

I really do like being independent, and I don't want to have to rely on anyone else to cart me around if I break a bone.
