I think of myself as being Jewish and Irish, despite the fact that I'm English.

I am Irish as a person, but I feel Jewish as an actor.

I'm just a true Irish boy at heart.

I'm from an Irish Catholic family.

I remember as a kid being asked if I was Jewish or Irish. I said, like the glib little 15-year-old I was, 'You can be both.' Feeling very pleased with myself. Before they smacked me.

My dad is Irish. I spent my childhood going back and forth between Ireland and America.

I'm first and foremost an Irishman, by birth, by nature, by soul, but an American citizen through and through as well.

I must admit, even though I'm the product of two Jewish parents, I think the Irish temper got in there somewhere, so I'm going to check Mom's genealogy.
