I Did Study Drama At Catholic U,

One Of The First Lessons I Learned As A Mom Was To Forgive Myself For Not Being Perfect And To Try To Prioritize What Was Really Important. I Had To Really Accept Very Early On That After A While, Reading A Script And Finding The Form For The Class Trip, It Was Hard To Realize Which One Had Priority At Times. So I Just Had To Say, "you're Doing The Best You Can, And When You Make A Mistake, Apologize. Your Kids Know That You Love Them."

I Think You Have To Ask Yourself, What Is The Point Of The Script? What Is The Script Selling? Because All Scripts Are Political, Every Story Is Political. It Either Challenges Or Reinforces Some Schism Or Stereotype. So What Is The Project Going To Say At The End Of The Day? What Does It Tell You About The World, Or What Does It Challenge In Terms Of Your World?

I'd Have Conversations With The Camera Crew About What Was Going On In The Scene, So That They Were Prepared To Shoot It. I Love The Fact That When You Work, You Create This Tribe.

I Can't Speak For Other People, But For Me, It Never Really Worked To Think Something Like, "what Beatle Did She Like In High School?" Or Those Kinds Of Elaborate Backstories.

I'm Kind Of A Nerd, So Whenever I Get A Chance To Talk To An Artist I Really Admire, I Tend To Gravitate To Process.
