Want to know what really makes me tick? Dishing with notable names about who their mentor is, what they attribute their longevity to, advice they’d give to rookies breaking in, and if they knew now what they knew then would they do anything differently. Here’s a brief list off the top of my head re: celebs I’ve interviewed over the years…
It is refreshing though to raise the bar with career chat, yes? I didn’t list screenwriters or producers/directors but honestly, they’re my heroes.
