I'll Never Forget My High School Acting Teacher, Anthony Abeson, Who Said, "it Starts With The Shoes." When I Think About A Character, It Does Start With The Shoes: What Kind Would She Wear? How Would She Walk In Them? If I'm Going To Put On A Dress For A Role - I Don't Care If It's The Hardest Dress To Put On - I Have To Put The Shoes On First. The Physicality Leads Me To The Character.
