I f**king hate bios.
And that's the truth. I love being behind the scenes and so, at times like this where I feel nudged to step to the front of the stage, to write where I have been and what I have done or whom I have worked with I always feel slightly fraudulent. Like I am describing someone else's life.
But if I follow the advice I give my Actors, to not get stuck in Resistance, to Accept instead and see what lies on the horizon, I can say with complete clarity, that I feel incredibly fortunate and grateful that I have been a part of Actors' lives and their process for almost thirty years so far.
I collaborate not just with actors but with writers, directors, producers; talented people so confident in their own craft that they willingly welcome an opinion not their own.
