John Hughes Had Such A Huge Impact

Books Have Always Been Really Important To Me; They're My Saving Grace.

I Just Did In My Early Twenties What Most Did When They Were Teenagers, Being Free And Exploring And Making Mistakes, But I Did It In France. I Did It Privately.

I Can't Stand Films That Make The Kids Out To Be Heroes And The Parents To Be Imbeciles.

I Used To Sing With My Father's Jazz Band And Then When I Was Ten Years Old A Musician Friend Of His Suggested That I Try Out For The First West Coast Production Of Annie.

I Like To Say, Jazz Music Is Kind Of Like My Musical Equivalent Of Comfort Food. You Know, It's Always Where I Go Back To When I Just Want To Feel Sort Of Grounded.
