The Handicap Of Deafness Is Not In

Hollywood Embraced Me In The Late '80s Because There Was A Good Project I Was In And It Was Different. Nowadays, It's About Corporate Mentality, Box Office, Youth.

Silence Is The Last Thing The World Will Ever Hear From Me.

The Best Feeling In The World Is When Your Child Comes Up To You And Lays Their Head In Your Lap, For No Other Reason But Just Because. I Can't Wait To Have More.

I Grew Up In The Suburbs Of Chicago, And In Spite Of What Most People Might Have Expected From A Young Girl Growing Up Deaf, Life For Me Was Like One Long Episode Of The Brady Bunch. Despite Whatever Barriers Were In My Way, I Imagined Myself As Marcia Brady Skating Down The Street Saying “hi” To Everyone, Whether They Knew Me Or Not.

Maybe My Way Of Communicating Through Sign Made Me More In Tune With My Body And How It Moved. Who Knows? I Just Know When I Saw A Stage For The First Time, I Wanted To Be On It.
