- [in a 1988 interview] My career has given me the chance to live out many facets of my own character. Two years ago I had the role of a judge on a crime series. While on a break, my mind wandered and I realized I had played, at one time or another, every character represented in the room--the young hood, the defense attorney, the D.A., the accused, etc. And I had found satisfaction in playing each one.
