I didn't act in school. I didn't study acting, either. I learned everything when I got to New York.

I started acting when I was in high school, started writing when I got to New York in 1975.

I went to acting school in New York City for two years. I studied with Stella Adler.

I moved to New York in '92 and got my graduate degree in acting from NYU - they have a great acting program. I graduated in '95.

The city seen from the Queensboro Bridge is always the city seen for the first time, in its first wild promise of all the mystery and the beauty in the world.
