I love my work, I love the people I work with, I do the best I can.

My sense of religion is Einstein's sense of relativity. I don't believe in God. I believe that energy never dies. So the possibility exists that you might be breathing in some other form of Moses or Buddha or Muhammad or Bobby Kennedy or Roosevelt or Martin Luther King or Jesus.

I'm on the board of directors for Peace Now, which works tirelessly between the Palestinians and the Israelis to create peace in the Middle East and we've never been closer.

Isaac and I are going to Israel to ride for peace enviromental justice and a safer world for us all.

Movies were a struggle for me - they didn't come easy.

My mom was a great cook and great baker all her life.

I'm an obsessive hiker and I do it every day for two hours and it really helps me when it comes to learning songs or scripts.

I'm active in PAX, which is a gun awareness organization. We treat gun safety as a public health issue.
