I am myself of a mixed background.

I came from a very strict background.

As a kid, I had a background in theater.

I've sort of escaped my background, as people often do, through art and culture.

I was quite a shy child - not chronically, but I tended to blend into the background.

I came from a very normal, un-Hollywood background. My parents provided me with every sort of normal upbringing that they could.

I always devise a background so that it makes what your character goes through logical and keeps up the continuity.

I come from a mixed background - my mom's black, my dad's white - and I traveled around the world.

I came from a dance background, so that's what I did my whole teenage years. I was at the dance studio a lot. It just becomes your social scene and part of your life.

My background was in graphic design, but when I was doing it, it was all hand-drawn stuff, not computers.
