I have known Tavis Smiley since the 1980s, when we both worked at the same radio station in Los Angeles. He is smart, and he is a gentleman who has accorded me great respect both on and off the air Picture Quote #1

I remain fearless of airplanes after 9/11. But during a trip to Los Angeles on a Boeing 767, I couldn’t keep my mind from drifting: What’s the largest piece of this airplane that could crash into the World Trade Center, explode out the other side, and survive intact?

I began my career performing in plays and musicals in New York, but by the mid- 80s, opportunities in Hollywood beckoned and I made the move to Los Angeles. It was a good decision. Work took off, but most important, I met my family out there - my husband, Bill, and the children we would adopt: Elijah, Mae-Mae, and Aron Picture Quote #1

Whenever I write lyrics, in the back of my mind I always see a guy driving to work, driving to a really bad job, one of those horrible institutions, or one of those low squat buildings in Los Angeles. I write with that person in my mind Picture Quote #1

Every time someone does a Western movie, people flock to it. It’s like, we’re continually programming to people who are least likely to watch us.

It took five days to drive to Los Angeles by myself. I listened to Abbey Road for six hours at a time and watched the desert open up before me again and again.

Los Angeles is such a great meritocracy. Where can someone with my background - don’t have the right family background, the right religion, the right provenance or whatever you want to call it - I come here and I’m accepted. The city’s been good to me. And I want to give back Picture Quote #1

There is a pool of references in New York and Los Angeles that are almost exclusively drawn from the media, from the world of television and advertising Picture Quote #1
