I had been doing summer stock every summer while I was in college. We did a showcase, like most good conservatories do - monologues and things that agents and casting directors come to see. From that I got an agent.
I guess I had a suspicion of it my entire life without knowing exactly what it was - knowing that there was something different about me, which I attributed to being an artist. At 11 or 12 I started sort of clarifying for myself. It took a while.
I don`t want to be Tom Cruise. I`m not after some movie blockbuster career. That`s not the kind of work I`m interested in. And frankly, it`s not the kind of work I`m ever going to get.
I don`t want to be the center of attention. My posture has changed. I walk with my head down and shoulders slumped. Suddenly I carry myself as if I`m ashamed of something.
I hope that they are finding satisfaction. I`m in no way making a judgment. I know it doesn`t make me happy.
