Richard Masur Quotes

Being an actor myself I realize that all actors believe they are qualified to play any role. If you showed me a script with a black woman character I would tell you that I could do it. That is what we do. We act as if we are someone else Picture Quote #1

For example, the first time McDonald’s put a deaf person in a commercial they saw a jump in sales. I think that happens with other kinds of disabilities and products and that is something that is being realized more and more Picture Quote #1

I know deaf people. I have discussed the issues with them I’ve also thought about them a lot so I have some insights that go a little further than people who haven’t had contact with the deaf community Picture Quote #1

The deaf community is in a favorable position because they have a national theatre and training groups of their own to get them started. Deaf actors have often acquired very valuable skills and experience before they get their break Picture Quote #1

I actually then went on to direct an after-school special where one of the characters was deaf. They hired me without even knowing I had any connection to the community Picture Quote #1

If people don’t actively knock the scenery over and they get the words out in something approximating the right order, you’re moving on Picture Quote #1

Most profoundly deaf people have speech that is very difficult to understand Picture Quote #1

You have to give people the opportunity to prove themselves Picture Quote #1

There is no relation to sound for deaf people. It is a totally different mental process Picture Quote #1

You have to give access to people with disabilities but there is no requirement to hire them. What I mean by affirmative obligation is that producers must take the necessary steps to include opportunities for people with disabilities and a vast majority of them do Picture Quote #1
