"I caught the acting bug early. My mother was rehearsing 'The Dutchman'
in Provincetown at a theater called Act Four when she started, and
nursing me, as well. My father was very supportive because he's an
artist...I was born in New York City., but lived in Provincetown from
age 4 to age 12. It was terrific growing up by the sea. I wanted to be
a marine biologist for many years, so if acting doesn't pan out, I can
always go back to school." Interview, 1990.
