Personally, as a print journalist, I always found the most interesting stories to be the ones hacks talked about in the bar after work.

I would love to compose something for dance before I kick the bucket, and I'm not closed-minded about the dance, or the dance company. I would really just love to collaborate on that.

I need to see where I am physically and practicing with NHL players is the best way to find that out.

People and places are the source of my work, both in prose and verse-and this remark is not the truism it seems, for I do not distinguish as sharply between a place and a person as most people seem to do.

This is my 25th year of being on stage. A lot of people who I kind of toed up to the starting line with are no longer in this position. I feel very, very lucky.

I'm kind of obsessed with food. I like to eat.

We shoot with three cameras, try to shoot both sides of coverage if possible.

A homemade cupcake deserves a homemade icing.

The job numbers are positive. We've had more jobs created now than were lost during the recession. We're seeing that the creation, we're seeing those numbers not only grow but shift toward the private sector and shift toward full-time employment and these are all signs that the recovery is taking some hold but we're not out of woods.
