I Weren't An Actor, I'd Be A

My Daughter's Wanted To Be An Actress Since She Was Six Years Old, But I Didn't Want Her To Go Through The Same Experiences As I Did As A Child Actor.

I Always Had A Separate Life Than Just My Work. I Built My Own Family. I Have My Own Hobbies And Interests. I Have A Ranch With Livestock And Horses. I Didn't Always Get My Self-esteem And Identity From Acting. I Never Worked Unless I Wanted To. I Never Did Anything Just To Do It, Just For The Paycheck. I Always Did Things That I Liked.

I Did A Lot Of Gasoline Commercials - Hess, Texaco. I Was Part Of The Family In The Car, The Little Brat In The Back.

I Never Thought I Was Good Enough Actually To Write.

As A Young Actor, There's A Very Small Group Of Kids, Just A Handful. As You Get Older, All Of A Sudden, There's A Bunch Of Guys Your Age That Work. It's A Very Different Experience When You Used To Be On The Short List Because You Were Young And There's Only So Many Kids That Can Do The Work And Then All Of A Sudden You're In Your Twenties And Thirties And There's A Whole Bunch Of Guys That Can Do Your Work.
