Personal Quote:

I have a respect for people telling their own stories. Holocaust survivors, cancer survivors, sex workers, pimps - they all wrestle with the same things. They want to survive the onslaughts. They have to make a living. They want to be excited and stimulated by life. I think that surviving in this complex, tossed-about universe is courageous, and how people do that is of great interest to me. See more »
