I'm at a place in my life where I do finally feel, at least most of the time, that I know who I am and I'm comfortable with the person that I am.
I grew up about 60 miles northwest of New York, in Middletown, NY.
Depression is something that seems really obscure when you see it in a theater, but when you talk to people who come to see it and hear their reactions, you realize that it is such a prevalent part of life and our society today that it really needed to be told, and still needs to be told.
Sometimes chemistry does the trick, and other times, you have to forge that with the people.
Typecasting is an interesting thing because, in a way, if you're good at something, you're going to work at that thing. In other ways, you constantly have to change people's opinion of you as one thing, especially if you want to play different roles. You have to shatter that image sometimes.
I listen to all kinds of music, but I've always been a really big fan of Top 40 radio. If I'm in my car, that's what I listen to.
I was very unsure about what I wanted to do in high school.
I feel like I've been dealing with that building over the years because of the Broadway community, so I'm treating it in the same way - I've always tried to keep my personal life private. I didn't get into this business for notoriety or fame. I don't go to places to be seen and that's not going to change.
After 9/11, the amount of applicants the FBI received increased exponentially. Whereas you used to require a college degree, and it was a small group of people who were just out of college, after 9/11, it changed.
It's every actor's dream to work in a hit show on Broadway and also shoot a television show.
I'm ready and open to meeting the person that hopefully I'll share my life with. It takes a long time to get to that place.
I watched so many movies when I was a kid, and I'd watch them over and over.
Life doesn't move in a linear fashion. Life makes lefts and rights, and it doubles back.
Cats and I have an understanding, but we choose not to interact often.
