I'm Just Not One Of Those People

I Don't Have Examples In My Life Of People Who Are All Good Or Bad; I Have Deeply Loved Many People Who Are Both, And I Relate To Those Kinds Of People On A Far Greater Level.

I Grew Up As A Tomboy. I Was Always Barefoot, Running Races With The Guys On The Block, Climbing Trees, And Beating Kids Up.

But I've Always Been Hard To Cast, I've Never Been An Ingenue, I've Never Been The Romantic Lead. I'm An Actor; Give Me The Script And I Do What I Do And Hope It's Good.

I Wanted To Act; That Was My One Goal. I Wanted To Devote All My Time To Acting And Not Waitressing Or Anything Else.

With Everything That You Do, Once The Costume Is On, And You're In The Pretend Hospital, And You're There With Your Co-workers, It All Sort Of Snaps Into Place: Who You Are, What It Feels Like, Who These People Are To You.
