I just needed a job. Before being hired as an usher at the CBS Theatre, I didn't even know there was a show business!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I didn't get here for my acting... but I love show business.
I wanted to be a stage actor but I got stuck on television. It took a couple of years to get used to.
I had a brief theater background and loved the backstage world there's more backstage work in television, so I saw a job advertised and applied, and got it. That was back in 1977, when getting jobs was easy.
I never wanted to be in the show business. I wanted to do special effects.
I really wanted to go onstage. Not movies. But I ended up under contract to Paramount. Now I adore film work.
I just wanted to be one of those actors who works at the National Theatre the whole time.
I just went into this business for laughs. I guess I don't mind being an actor so much now.
My introduction to acting was through theatre, so I actually saw a couple of Broadway shows that made me want to be an actor.
Even though I was in close proximity to everything, it never really dawned on me to pursue a career in show business.
I started off in a small theatre performance company and worked my way into commercials.
