I am an only child. My mom was truly my best friend. And she had passed away, with me at her side, a couple months previous to this filming. I took to wearing her gold wedding band on my pinky finger, just to keep her near. So it's the very first day of filming for me, and we're at this fabulous mansion in the hills, and we're going to shoot my first scene --- and it is the scene where I surprise my sister who is sleeping in bed, and we talk about what's going on with her. It is a highly emotional scene. And, because this is just how the movie business works sometimes, it is my very first time ever laying eyes on my co-star, Alicia. We had never even spoken, and here we are filming this scene that is crucial to showing our relationship as sisters, …show more content…

And Mr. Robot is the finest drama. I also love the shows Man Seeking Woman, You're The Worst, Orange Is The New Black ... But ... you didn't ask me about my favorite shows. You asked me what I'd like to recur on. And Louie doesn't really have recurring characters. And I don't know that I would fit into the world of Mr. Robot. So my answer would have to be a show filled with actors who inspire me and who I would want to create with, plus a showrunner and team of directors and writers that I would want to work with on a regular basis, that has an already established world with a tone and style that I think would have room for someone like me in it ... (and that's a lot of criteria) ... so based on all that ... I would have to say ... (drumroll, please) ... Transparent. I really, really love me some Jill Soloway and I heard that the atmosphere she has created for her show is a once-in-a-lifetime on-set experience. So ... yeah. I'd love to spend a good chunk of my time there, and be associated with that show. A close runner-up though would be American Horror Story. I think the concept that they use this exceptional pool of actors who get to play different characters with each season is so innovative and fantastic. I actually was lucky enough to film an episode in the Hotel season with Denis O'Hare --- but as it sometimes happens, my role ended up on the cutting room floor.

What Susan has overcome to be where she is--a working actress (who is not necessarily typecast) and a woman who is comfortable in her own skin--that is a true triumph in of itself. In an age where Hollywood is beginning to discard their stereotypical images of gender, religion, weight, ethnicity, and more, it is a delectable delight to see a woman like Susan who is gifted and determined to accomplish her dreams no matter what obstacles are propelled in her way. When I look at Susan, I notice the beauty of her face, her radiant smile, and the kindness and generosity shining from her soul. Every day, Susan effectively debunks the flawed system that has been crammed into the heads of impressionable, young women that if they are not this or that, they are not beautiful nor worthy of someone's love. No doubt, Susan is a natural-born performer, and she is careful to give credit to all who have helped her on her journey to become the best entertainer and person that she can be. While Susan may never become a household name, her fierce devotion to her craft and her comfort with who she is as a woman is quietly making inroads every day to change this world. Many might doubt that one woman can make a difference, or doubts may arise about how far-reaching one individual's influence might be. It's a
