For Me, Work Is So Satisfying And

It's Sort Of Scary To Work With Your Parents When You're In The Same Business. But There Was Something So Very Safe About That. Acting With Her Was Just Like Working With A Wonderful Actress Who Just Happens To Be My Best Friend And Also My Mother.

Sometimes I Would Go Home From Work And Just Stare At The Wall For A Couple Of Hours. But, I Can't Complain. Whatever Knocks You Out Working Is The Kind Of Work That I Want To Be Doing Because It's Always Those Challenges That Are The Most Exciting, And The Things I Hope To Get To Keep Doing In My Work.

One Of My Mother's Friends Said To Me, 'your Ex-boyfriends Didn't Stand A Chance With You And Your Mother.' And I Think I Probably Was Unfair To Them Because She Was The First Person And The Last Person I Called About Every Single Thing. Sorry, Ex-boyfriends.

Theresa Rebeck's Writing Is So Scarily Funny. I Just Love How Unapologetic She Is With Her Writing: She Doesn't Try To Make Her Characters Likeable Or Heroic, She Just Really Makes Them Human. Hopefully, The Audience Is Able To Love Them In The End - Or Have Whatever Feelings That They Want To Have About All Of Them - But I Love That She Doesn't Have That Agenda. That Is Something That, As An Actress, Was Really Appealing To Me; To Just Get To Be In This Group Of People Who Are Complicated And Very Human.

I Am My Parents' Daughter, And I Always Want To Be. But I First Wanted To Make Sure That I Was Standing On My Own Two Feet.
