This is age 67½. Sometimes I feel like casting expects us all to have gray hair, but I do know that they know better & if they want gray hair they ask for gray hair.

Yes, I can be cast younger, as long as they don’t shoot my liver spots &c. So, yes, a first-world, lucky-genes problem.

We're not anti-tech, we're anti-theft. If the future of “innovation” depends on stealing creators’ work without asking or paying, that’s not progress - it's stealing, and we shouldn’t accept it. #StealingIsntInnovation www.stealingisntinnovation.com/

I am so very sad to learn of Tina Packer's passing. Today I'm learning so much about her from before I knew of her work at Shakespeare & Company, which was always inspired and inspiring to me.

Need a DIT (Digital Imaging Technician) for your short film? I just finished a weekend shoot that generated 1,000 GB of digital files! I’d love to help you wrangle, organize, preserve, and prepare all your video and audio for handoff to your editor.

ICYMI, #CastingNetworks is raising fees that our reps pay for their side of the service. CN suggests that it will reduce the burden on actors w/o specifying how much it would be reduced. Let’s see both rep & actor fees at the same time!

Like the audition director I didn’t hear say “action” proceed to condescendingly explain what “action” means.

“It’s hard to push back when you don’t have power, but Bob Iger and Dana Walden have power,” [WGAW President Meredith] Stiehm said of Disney’s CEO and entertainment chair. “They know what this is. This is appeasement. This is cowardice. They’re being bullied. And they should say no."

Do No Harm is the 2nd episode of The Opioid Trilogy on Independent Lens on PBS. It is one of three very personal stories about opioid addiction and treatment.

I’m ready for my closeup! My first manicure, ever! The audition notes mentioned “hand” or “hands” nine times, even though it’s a tabletop-to-head frame. (And, yes, there’s also a hand photo slate.)
