For me, the acting part - and I have to say it makes me a little worried about my own psychological make-up - is that I just love to hide in other characters. I don't like to get up in front of people and talk as Kathy Baker. But as soon as you say 'action,' I'm lost in that character.

I've never loved a character as much as I do Niska. The way she's been written is so complex, with huge amounts of light and dark.
