It wasn't until I was in that world, directing shows and movies, that I realized basically my job is to give back to another generation what the generation before me gave to me.

I was never really a career woman. My life always came first.

Eventually I lost the idea that I could have a career. I thought I was too old.

The previous generation paved the way for my generation to gallop unheeded into jobs previously reserved for men.

My generation, we came along, we had to really know our craft.

I gave up my childhood for a career.

Most young people were getting jobs in big companies, becoming company men. I wanted to be individual.

I certainly feel my career was a great career because it inspired so many many people, literally hundreds of people to follow a new kind of life and to realize that they could make out and advance their own professional and private and social lives.

I'm an older generation.

The thing is, I wasn't surrounded by lots of people who were helping me build a career.
