"In real life, I don't love working out, but I've been driven to it." — Joanna Going

I love doing period work, like all the trappings and the wigs and everything. It really helps when it's such a different world that you're immersing yourself in; it helps to get into the story, I think, and step into that different place.

I kind of prefer bouncing back and forth between theater and films. It's like having the best of both worlds, both very different experiences.

To have real issues to delve into, research-wise, always makes it a lot more satisfying to me. I can pull from a lot of resources and put them into my work and just have as much information as possible.

I have dogs, and I hike.
