But I'm a historian. I wasn't interested in just being a producer, I was interested in doing research and presenting that research to a general public.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I didn't ever plan to be a producer, and I didn't really know what I was getting myself into.
I would like to produce films, but I feel I am an unsuccessful producer. That's the fact.
I look at old interviews and things and they say, 'What do you want to do when you grow up?' I say, 'I want to be a producer.' And I'm really fortunate that I was able to do it.
I want to direct but I think I'd be bloody awful and I don't want to produce but I think I'd be a very good producer because if I believed in something I'd be able to protect it.
The type of producing that I did for many years involved working very closely with directors.
I wanted to be a film and television writer and producer.
You know, what a producer does is one of the great mysteries in life, so anyone can be one.
I love being a producer, and I think I essentially still operate as a producer even though I now have control of marketing and the ability to green-light shows - something every producer wants but that they don't get!
I'm a producer for fun. I'm not a professional schooled musician or anything.
I'm a writer; I'm a producer. I've certainly spread myself over a lot of different careers.
