I loved to imagine all the different worlds and lives I could live. I love the nuance and intimacy of a moment, and most deeply because film and theater show the complexity of flawed humanity and the parts we don't share with the world...I always wanted to see that in others and myself. It is quite possibly the most intimate way to know and experience yourself.
