People Are Always Casting Me For What

People Are Always Casting Me For What They Call My 'authority.

When I Was Growing Up, Particularly During Puberty In My Teen Years, I Was So Miserable Because I Elicited So Much Teasing And Meanness From My Teenage Cohorts.

It Really Hit Home That My Parents Felt As Though They Didn't Have To Worry Anymore. They Realized If You Could Win An Oscar, That Was A Good Sign.

I Aspired To Be Extremely Sophisticated.

When I Was 16, Nobody Else Talked Like Me. Nobody Else Sounded Like Me.
