When In Doubt, Stand Still.

My Life Has Been So Fortunate. I Have Had Most Extraordinary Good Fortune In My Life. I Sort Of Put It Into Three Categories, The Three Major Stepping Stones. One Being London Hippodrome Theater Stage Debut When I Was 12, When It Started My Career. The Second Being Going To Broadway. And The Third Going To Hollywood. Each One Of Those Happened Under The Most Extraordinary Circumstances.

If Somebody Can Act Out One Of The Books As A Play, If They Can See A Play, Film, Or Television Show That's Related, That Can Be So Stimulating For Them. Anything That Makes Children Engage And Think - And Love What The Story Is About - Can Only Bring The Most Enormous Rewards.

Can I Give Them What They Think They're Going To Get From Me? That's Always The Big Question.

I Google'd Myself A Lot Of Times Believe Me. A Lot Of People Know More About Me Than I Knew.

I Was Raised Never To Carp About Things And Never To Moan, Because In Vaudeville, Which Is My Background, You Just Got On With It Through All Kinds Of Adversities.
