I became a set designer for opera.

I wanted to be a set designer when I was young.

We've had the same set designer and the same crew in many cases since 1972.

I'm the first American designer who went all over the world.

I have worked with some of the most amazing costume designers in the world.

I was an absolutely untalented designer.

My dad's a sound designer, and he used to take me to work with him.

In my early days I was a contract player at Universal and I had a wonderful mentor named Monique James, who was head of talent there, and she used to drag me on sets to do parts.

I'm not a designer, I'm a creator.
