I got my first professional job at Harvard, at the Loeb Drama Center, and I remember sitting on campus one day under a tree - I was doing 'Threepenny Opera.' I was reading a book, and the light caught me, and I thought, 'I want to be in the movies.'

I played an old woman in a wheelchair at 18.

I've been very, very, very, very fortunate, and I'm very grateful for my career and that, at 60, I won an Emmy.

I'm delighted with how my career unfolded.

I live in a sort of insular world. It's mostly my family, my house, staying home and working.

I will go for a simple girl who's completely in tune with me and who gets along with my family.

I have a husband who didn't just resign himself to staying home but was happy to be the primary parent.

There's no way you should try to send somebody back who came here as a child with their parents and who's grown up here in the United States. They're Americans.
