charged control early europe found history mexican mexico path period political social students study time united
I went to Mexico to study social and political history during that really charged period in Mexican history in the early sixties, that I found my path in a way. It was a time when students wanted to take control of their own country, not just in Mexico but also in Europe and the United States.
deadly enjoy oh
Oh I smoke, as many as I can. It's one of those deadly things I still enjoy doing.
family
I was born into a family of preachers.
It's important to move the theatre into the 21st Century.
music
Music always came first. I never set out to be an actor.
acting child good
I went into acting because I had to make a good living. I had a child now and I had to support him any way I could... I wasn't happy, but I wasn't unhappy. I was just doing what I had to do to survive.
thinking over-you body
It's only when gravity starts to take over you begin to think about your body.
food diversity
I like to eat and I love the diversity of foods.
teacher father hero
My father was my main influence. He was a preacher, but he was also a history and political science teacher, and since he was my hero, I wanted to follow in his footsteps and become a teacher.
anger awful facts
I was never jailed. The fact is that I was arrested, but I went into a diversion programme, and by that time I'd already begun working in what was called anger management. It was a painful and awful moment.
football team heart
One of my beliefs is that there are certain institutions within a community which stand for the spirit and heart of that community, there's the church, the local football team, the local pub and the theatre.
doors personality risk
Sometimes I feel an obligation to be accessible as a personality, but for me the driving force since the beginning has always been good work, taking risks, trying new things. If the door opens, go through it. Always go forwards.
actors
I was an accidental actor. I was never formally trained.
