Personal Quote:
With most people when there's a pain in their life there's mental scar tissue that forms over the pain and helps you go on living. An actor's scar tissue really never covers over things the same way, not if you're going to be sensitive. With good technique, an actor can do that and walk through life without going insane.

Graduated from Bethany College, in Bethany, West Virginia, with a Bachelors of Arts degree in Theater in 1979. She graduated from Yale University, in New Haven, Connecticut, with a Masters of Fine Arts degree in 1982. See more »Nickname:
