I Just Want To Be A Professional.

To Those Seniors, And Especially Elderly Veterans Like Myself, I Want To Tell You This: You Are Not Alone, And You Having Nothing To Be Ashamed Of. If Elder Abuse Happened To Me, It Can Happen To Anyone. I Want You To Know That You Deserve Better.

Look, I Come From Vaudeville, I Come From Burlesque, I Come From Heartaches, I Come From Sadness, I Come From Gladness, I Come From Work And Sweat And Respect For The Craft.

I Belong To The Public. The Public Made Me. The Public Can Break Me. I Owe Them My Life.

Women Liked Me Because I Made Them Laugh.

I Just Want To Be A Professional. I Couldn't Live Without Acting.
