Hometown: My family and I lived all over the country but the closest thing to a home town would be South Windsor Connecticut where I went to high School.

Select Credits: Broadway: A Streetcar Named Desire, The Night of the Iguana, Rumors and Footloose. My favorite roles have been in the plays Rapture and Little Beasts written for me by my sister, playwright Jeanne Marshall.
Why theater: The theater chose me at a very young age. I was always shy as a child but wasn't shy on stage and it has always appealed to my need to lead a creative life.

If you could work with anyone who would it be?: It would be Vanessa Redgrave.
Who would you play in a movie about yourself and what would it be called?: I would definitely want to play my mother... She is amazing. I haven't the foggiest idea what it would be called.
