I don’t care if I’m wearing an alien mask and you can’t see me. I just want to be in Star Trek.’ They did and luckily the casting agent had a sense of humor. Good and I got this little part.

Many directors don’t direct you. They just set up the shot and said, ‘Let’s go.’ Leonard walked me through my lines and told me what he wanted. I’m sure it was terrible. I hate to say it because I know it’s always meant Being positive about myself, but I’m sure it was pretty awful because I was so impressed and nervous. But he was kind and patient with me, and the moment was over as soon as it started.”
