I Grew Up In A Family Where

I'm In Film School, So I Really Have To Sock Away My Money For School, Tuition, And So On, And I Really Don't Have Time.

Me And My Sisters Were Taught That If Our Eyes Worked And Our Legs Worked, We Were Beautiful. We Had So Many Kids In Our Family That If We All Got In Front Of The Mirror And Were Ashamed Of Browns And Golds And Yellows And Whites, And We Believed What Society Told Us - That The Darker People Were Less Attractive And The Lighter Ones Were Prettier - We Would Have Had Sibling Murders. My Family, Being Half-rural And Half-military, Just Came From A Different Place.

Anything Involving The Camera, You're Passionate About. Because There's No Movies Without It.

I Grew Up In A Family Where We Weren't Allowed To Talk About Beauty Or To Put Any Emphasis On Physical Appearance.

I'm An Air Force Brat And I've Lived All Over The World And This Country And There Were People In My Community Who Were Gay - Nurses, Hairdressers, Designers - People Who Just Had A Different Way About Themselves.
