I Went To A Little

I Know So Many Amazing Actors Who Don't Get Work... And Then There Are A Bunch Of Real Duds That Work All The Time. The Industry Is Just Not Fair In That Way.

It Is Part Of Me; I Could Definitely Be That If I Wanted To, I Just Choose Not To. I Mean, I Am An Actress At My Core, And I Think We're All A Little Crazy.

I Had A Teacher Who Said Something Great. That Was, 'go Out And Collect Your Nos. Once You Get Fifty Nos Then You Can Start Wondering When You Can Get A Yes.' He Said, 'it Is Not Your Job To Get The Job; Its Your Job To Do A Consistent Body Of Work. So, Every Time You Go In There, Just Go In There And Be Consistent, And Eventually It Will Get Noticed And Someone Will Hire You.'

I Had This Crazy Job, Though, When I First Got To Los Angeles... I Answered This Ad In The Back Of The Newspaper To Be A Telephone Psychic, And I Did That For Two Days.

With "the Office," They Said, "we Don't Want Anyone We Recognize, So Give Us Unknown Actors," And I Think That Was The Break That I Needed. Because I Went In And I Got The Role.
