In the 40 years I lived in NYC doing movies, film and tv, and gaining EXCELLENT training there with some of the most knowledgeable acting teachers and directors (such as Sidney Lumet, Woodie Allen, etc), I KNOW MY CRAFT. Working on the soaps for over 20 yrs itself was a great learning experience. Learning camera angles, blocking, stageing, etc., was an experience in its self. I learned to be a perfectionist from working with Mr. Bill Cosby for one (1) whole season. Yes, I know my craft quite well.
