My dad would write these sketches for me while I was at 'SNL.'

I came from a family where, you know, we sat down at the table every night, and you better have a story to tell. My father never wrote his stories down. And you know, I learned that they went farther if you wrote them down.

I come from a family of storytellers. Growing up, my father would make up these stories about how he and my mother met and fell in love, and my mother would tell me these elaborately visual stories of growing up as a kid in New York, and I was always so enrapt.

My dad does tons of voiceovers; he was Duke in 'G.I. Joe' and 'Transformers' and Handy, Lazy, and Grouchy Smurf, so I grew up with the best bed time stories ever.

My dad was such a great story-teller, a good teacher.

My mom, dad, grandparents, we all do voices.

My dad's one of the funniest men in the world. I grew up with him making me laugh so much I'd beg him to stop.

I don't remember my father reading to me, but I remember him telling me bedtime stories. I got to pick what was in them, and then he'd make them up.

Everybody's got a different way of telling a story - and has different stories to tell.

When I was a little kid, before I learned how to write, I would tell stories.
