I Remember When I Took The Role

I Had A Really Scary Pregnancy And A Very Difficult Delivery. My Daughter And I Are Lucky To Be Alive.

Yes, I'm Very Close To My Family. And Being That Close To Your Family, I Think You Also Struggle With How To Become Your Own Person.

After I Finished 'e.r.', I Wanted To Concentrate On Re-examining What Kind Of Actress I Am And Taking Time For Real-life Things.

I Think The Hardest Thing About The Part Is The Responsibility That You Feel Playing Something That Is So Real And Resonant In Our Times. There Are People Coming Home Right Now With Those Stories, And I'm Just An Actress Pretending To Be That Person. You Hope That You Can Shed Some Light On Somebody's Predicament.

People Are Drawn To Watching Things That Are Dramatic. And The Tighter A Relationship Is, The More Dramatic It Can Be. That's Something Family Lends Itself To. Everybody Has Family, Somewhere, Somehow. Those Relationships Are Always Very Complex. This Takes It To Almost Greek-tragedy-level Heights. That's Fun To Watch, Although It's Very Uncomfortable. It Explores The Darkest Sense Of Family.
