Being an actor started me writing, and that led to directing.

Directing, editing, and everything about filmmaking has definitely changed me as an actor.

I started writing because I wasn't getting things as an actor.

Acting had been a hobby that turned into a career, the directing was a hobby that turned into a career and music just really allowed me to find another way to express myself.

Directing a film was something I always wanted to do, something that seemed an inevitability in my development as an actor.

I never really wanted to be an actor. And that was the beginning of it, I began to write things down and eventually became a writer on a television show.

I worked as an actor for many years. Then I segued to some non-fiction writing.

I had no intention of being an actor. I was quite good at it. I was pretty capable at other things but never any good at anything.

I was a writer. I just wasn't a very good one. I was lucky enough to have a playwriting teacher who told me that I'd be a better actor than I would a playwright.

I learned so much about being an actor by being a director. More than I ever thought I would.
