When you have a dream and you kind of bury it because you think it won’t come true, to see it finally come true is incredible. - Ke Huy Quan

When I walk on a movie set, knowing how difficult it is to get to have this opportunity, I’m always grateful. I didn’t think I would have this amazing second act as an actor in my early 50s, and I hope my story inspires someone to not give up on their dreams.

When I got back into acting, I decided I was going to go back to my birth name – that was really important to me.

But I think I’ve cried more in the last six months than I cried in the previous 20 years. Hearing all these wonderful comments from people about how much they’ve missed me on the screen and their warm embrace of my return has made me very emotional.
