I definitely have had friendships and moments with people from different backgrounds and in different stages of their lives.

I met my husband, Jacob, in medical school. We married and went to live in Hawaii where his family lived. It was very beautiful, but I wasn't used to being on an island and needed wide open spaces. Eventually we moved to Maine, New England.

I have a 92 year old father whose doing beautifully who lives in Chicago and a sister and a nephew and a niece and I love coming back and try to do so fairly often.

Here we spent so much time together - eight months of our lives almost - and it was so great because we all got so close and that really made us not afraid to improve with each other.

I have got some fantastic friendships that I have had for a long, long time.

Treat Williams and I have been friends for years. To finally get to work together was great.

John Hirschbeck is a wonderful person with a wonderful family. I'm so glad that we have become friends.

People come in and out of our lives, and the true test of friendship is whether you can pick back up right where you left off the last time you saw each other.

I lived in upstate New York until I was ten years old and we moved overseas. I have a lot of nostalgic memories of that part of the world, and I love going back there by writing the Lakeshore books.

I've spent my life visiting a handful of people who are very close to me when they've been committed to one hospital or another in New York.
