I stayed in the East for about a year after I graduated. Then, I came out to Los Angeles and started knocking on doors and working my way up. This was the '70s. I had been told how tough it was for a woman trying to make it in Hollywood, but I sort of had blinders on. I just did things anyway.
I've been very fortunate, but it also never occurred to me that I couldn't do something or that I couldn't ask if I could try something.
