I’ll go to a premiere and meet someone and say, ‘I had no idea we were in the same movie.’ In the old days they used to put you together to rehearse so you would get a sense of the whole.

But I am so curious because when Amy read the article on my mother she said, ‘You know, we are getting into the sixties and Jews were very instrumental in the civil rights movement in the south where you are from.’ I was surprised since very few people knew, especially since the show is so New York-centric, and southern Jews have a different cultural population than what we think of New York Jews from the fifties.
