I Really Only Did Theater In School

The Thing I Noticed, Have Learned The Most About Directors, Is: When They're Very Confident In Themselves, They're Open To Creativity From Other People. If They're Scared Or Nervous, Then They Shut Off And Nobody's Ideas [count].

Because I Had Some Roles That Resonated With Women, I Immediately Noticed That There Were Far More Male Characters Than Female Characters In What We're Showing Little Kids In The 21st Century, Which Was Stunning To Me. But I Couldn't Find Anybody Else Who Noticed.

I Have A Web Site That Parents And Girls Can Use To Learn About Title Ix And Take Action If They Find Their School Is Not In Compliance. Thirty Years After Title Ix Passed, 80 Percent Of Schools Are Not In Compliance.

So Many Other Countries Have Had Female Leaders, In Fact The U.s. Ranks 61st In Female Representation In Government And I Think It Is Startling And Sign Of A Change That Needs To Be Made.

When It Came Time For College, I Told My Parents I Was Going To Major In Acting. And They Were So Removed From Anything To Do With Show Business - My Dad Built Our House And My Mom Grew Our Food.
