Personal Quotes 

[re Boston Legal (2004) audition] I completely bombed the audition...I was insecure, stopping and starting. I went to the bathroom and cried.
You have to keep hobbies in L.A. Otherwise, it's sad.
My dad's a Jew and my mom's a WASP, so that should pretty much say it all. It was a comically dysfunctional family.
I did accents and funny voices for the family when I was growing up. I'm passionate about the sexy-baby vocal virus affecting a generation of women.

I had no other choice than to make it the way I made it. And I felt very supported in that. When you write and direct your own film you basically know exactly what you want. Or you hope to. For the studio, it actually can make life a little easier, because if you have a bunch of questions they only need to call one person.
