Sara Shepard

I do a lot of revising on paper. Sometimes I think I should just write longhand - what I type reads very different once I print it out.

I was not tormented in any way; I was never even bullied. I had a nice teenage life.

I loved the movie 'Heathers' and the TV show 'Twin Peaks.'

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.

I always dreamed of writing in an orchestral context. But when you finish a piece, you want to hear it. So we played everything with Phish.

It's very hard to play the straight lead girl and still make her sparkly and fun and real.
