Personal Quote:

There's no such thing as The Method. The term "method-acting" is so much nonsense. There are many methods, many techniques. My father merely used a method of teaching based on the ideas originally propounded by [Konstantin Stanislavski]--self-discipline, how to think out a role and use imagination. That's all. See more »

Trivia:

Daughter of Lee Strasberg and stage actress Paula Strasberg. Mother of one child - daughter, Jennifer Robin Jones (B: March 14, 1966), with ex-husband Christopher Jones. See more »
