Working on 'Mad Men' was an incredible experience. It was such an incredible show with beautiful writing and so much complexity.

Nearly a decade of time is enough for everybody to change, quite a bit.

A lot of girls ask for advice on how to get into acting, and I'm kind of the worst person to ask, because it just kind of fell in my lap... I was just in the right place at the right time.

I'm the kind of person who, if I like one song, will listen to all of the band's work before moving on to another group.
-
I really enjoy working, you know, on streaming outlets because there's so much creative control for the creators of the shows, and, you know, you're allowed to make such great television.
-
It gets kinda monotonous, but that's television. There are plus sides and down sides. The positive side is that you have steady work for nine months of the year for however many years your show is on TV,.

I like period pieces.
-
It's really wonderful to play characters as different from each other as I can.

I'm still a shy person. I've learned to put that aside on certain occasions. I have to. It's part of my job.

Give me a hot drink, and I'm happy. Hot cider, hot chocolate, coffee... I like all winter beverages!

I always have looked for the best challenge, I guess, that I could take on. I haven't been producing my own work or anything like that, so I've taken the jobs that look most interesting that come my way.

I tend to renovate properties when I'm not working.

Ofglen is a little different than the other Handmaids because she has a really rebellious spirit and she has the hope that she could escape.
-
There are a lot of challenges Ofglen faces as a Handmaid. She has to live her life for the Commander of her home, Glen, and it is really a bleak life. She has no rights, and her main job is to keep him and the rest of the people in his house happy.

I always thought that I would work behind the camera, because it's a more comfortable place for me to be, really.

When we first filmed 'Gilmore Girls,' I didn't know it would build such a cult following.

'The Handmaid's Tale' takes place in the near future, a dystopian future, and is based on the book by Margaret Atwood. It takes place in what was formerly part of the United States at a period of time when society has been taken over by a totalitarian theocracy. It's about the women who live in subjugation.

A story isn't interesting unless a character has real challenges to deal with.

Sylvia Plath wasn't scared of exploring the darker side of her psyche.

Directors and writers have a lot of stress as well, because they have people they answer to.

In my life, I don't need to have my face plastered everywhere. It's not really something I want.

I remember seeing the performance Samantha Morton did in 'Sweet and Low Down' where she didn't speak at all, and I loved it so much because she got to do so much work just by expressing herself in her body and her face. With expressions, it wasn't necessary to speak. I find that appealing.
