SAG-AFTRA Statement on the Arrest of Journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort

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. #ActorsLife

This is something I absolutely love about performing and watching #Shakespeare #HamnetMovie #StageActor #theatre #ActorsLife www.youtube.com/shorts/BhLkt...

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. #shakespeare #theatre

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. #DIT #TexasFilm #AustinFilm #ATXfilm #TXfilm

RIP and thanks for the experience of performing during nonstop laughter, start to finish. 🎭 #theatre #playwright #NYactor #StageActor #TomStoppard

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! #ActorsLife #ScreenActor #FilmCasting #TVcasting

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

Commercial slates can get pretty involved. #ActorsLife #ScreenActor #commercials #AustinActor #TexasActor #ATXactor

“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. #AddictionRecovery #OpioidCrisis #EndAddictionStigma #ActorsLife #ScreenActor #TexasActor #AustinActor

#OTD in 2024. Free haircut! All episodes of 1923 are now on Blu-ray and streaming on Paramount+ #ActorsLife #1923tv #ParamountPlus

At first, I thought zin zun zan was an acting studio. #ActorsLife

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.) #ActorsLife #ScreenActor #CommercialActor #SelfTape

The Opioid Trilogy, Ep. 2: Do No Harm premieres on PBS on Sept. 16. (Local time may vary.) The 2nd installment of The Opioid Trilogy follows a 17-year struggle with heroin addiction and path to recovery. I performed in this rotoscope-animated (reenactment) documentary. #ActorsLife #ScreenActor

I guess I’d better watch The Departed while I can! Five Oscars in 2007! #movies #OscarBestPicture #OscarBestDirector #OscarBestSupportingActor #OscarBestAdaptedScreenplay #OscarBestFIlmEditing #Oscars2007 #CrimeMovies

There is a difference! #ActorsLife

My first residuals check! Just in time to pay September rent! (This is a typical portion of Distributor's Gross Receipts, DGR, for a day player. It’s divided among all cast and crew working under a union contract.) #ActorsLife #ScreenActor #TVactor #ATXactor #AustinActor #TexasActor

1923 audition vs. final. Most self tapes stand alone, a single performance for the casting director, each with hope but without expectation that there will be a second audition (callback) or a role in the production. #OTD last year #ActorsLife #ScreenActor #TexasActor #ATXactor #AustinActor #1923tv

1923 Season 2 is now available on Blu-ray in stores and online. #ActorsLife #ScreenActor #TexasActor #ATXactor #AustinActor #1923tv

I do love playing a villain. (From today’s self tape for a role in a feature.) #ActorsLife #SelfTape #ScreenActor #FilmActor #IndependentFilm

It's Pride Weekend in most places around the globe (including my city, NYC), so this bears sharing again. Be loud. Be proud. Be safe.

I don’t really have as few as 10 “favorite” movies, I certainly couldn’t rank them, and I’m sure there are some I have yet to see from the past 25 years that could become favorites. #movies #ActorsLife #FilmStudy
