I really came out to L.A. to take the money and run.

I like people-watching and fading into crowds.

I've always just gone with the best role, and I don't care if it's in theater, film or television.

I'm a strong person, but I'd never resort to violence.

I literally felt like a freak, which is another aspect of the role of Sally that I relate to: total outsider.

Onstage, I was never the ingenue.
