Hollywood Is The Kind Of Place That

[ 1600 Penn] Is An Ensemble Comedy About A Family. It Just Happens To Utilize The Fact That My Character Is Now Being Forced Into This World As A Jumping Off Point. But, In No Way Is It The Crux Of The Series. It's Simply An Introduction To The World.

I Was A Product Of A Divorced Family And I Used Humor As A Weapon To Combat Sadness. I Used Comedy To Make My Mother Laugh In Light Of The Darkness That She Faced, And To Me It Became A Very Powerful Tool At A Very Young Age, At Six. I Saw How Therapeutic It Could Be.

Acting Comes Natural To Me. What I Do Enjoy Is Meeting People That I've Idolized For Years. I Mean, I Was Talking About Bringing Up A Child With Edie Falco Yesterday.

I'm Unfortunately Very Verbose Too Often.

I Met Jon Lovett, Who Was Just Coming Off Of Three Years Of Being A Presidential Speech Writer And Had Just Arrived Here To Be A Comedy Writer In Hollywood. I Thought He Was Super Green, In Terms Of This World, But He Knows So Much About The World That We're Attempting To Write About.
