- I've lived on the planet long enough to see it happen time and again. Ultimately, you get to a point where you see that no matter how horrific your childhood was, you have much more insight and depth because of the pain you've been through.
- Absolutely, that experience, doing door work for seven years.
- The industry is changing really fast and drama has suffered because of that - there are all these new platforms that have been created but it's still a struggle for an actor in this country.
- I'm pretty much a full-time voice artist and a part-time actor. I do this for a hobby. I would love it to be the other way around.
- To be an actor in Australia you are just grateful for work, I'm grateful to have a job, feel my three kids and pay the mortgage.
