Personal Quote:
When people ask me where I received my education, I tell them it was at MGM-U. The biggest lessons I learned is that acting is a talent. You can't teach it. And even if you have the talent you have to get a part.Trivia:
Studied at the Actors Laboratory in Los Angeles, which later became the Actors Studio in New York. See more »Star Sign:
