Personal Quote:

It was my ambition to be a fighter pilot. At school I played Edmund the Bastard in 'King Lear' as my end-of-term play, and when a career in aviation didn't materialize, I chose acting as my work. You have to have a dedication to the profession, or you are doomed to fail. See more »
