All About Eve
As the only child of Viennese parents who survived the Holocaust, I lived in various European and South American Countries. At 10 I was fluent in German, Spanish and English. Having a great ear for language and dialects has served me well in my career.
I am grateful and honored to have been taught by some of the world's most gifted and respected teachers. Always a willing and cheerful collaborator to the creative process,
My favorite acting niche is Taboos in Society. Actors who regularly play in that niche are: Ellen Barkin, Patricia Clarkson,Jessica Lange, Gena Rowlands and Anne Bancroft (in the graduate if it were made today). I also love comedy and can find the funny in the darkness.
among my favorite quotes...
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do.
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."
