Personal Quote:
I pursued film because I thought this was the coolest job. I loved the idea of working with writers and musicians and photographers and actors at the same time. It sounds corny but the opportunity to work with
Robert De Niro was a dream come true for me. I truly am happiest in a working environment where I can encourage and create surprises.[1988]
