I'm really interested in modern history but to fulfill a History degree at Brown you have to do modern and pre-modern.
Even in high school I was very interested in history - why people do the things they do. As a kid I spent a lot of time trying to relate the past to the present.
It has pleased and interested me to see how I could get along under difficult circumstances and with so much discomfort but as I say I was not sent out here to improve my temper or my health or to make me more content with my good things in the East.
We are particularly interested in the mental health programs and policies that support our troops and their families before during and after deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan.
I am interested in getting people to use the healthcare system at the right time getting them to see the doctor early enough before a small health problem turns serious.
In the beginning when I sat next to Tom Brokaw on the 'Today' show the stories I was interested in were those having to do with women and children and learning and health. In those days 25 to 30 years ago that was called soft news and not in a nice way.
The doctor has been taught to be interested not in health but in disease. What the public is taught is that health is the cure for disease.
90% 100% are going there to hear the singing. The story is another thing. Nobody's interested in the story. Happiness is happiness.
I'm interested in the dark side of man. I'm interested in taboos and murder is the greatest taboo. Characters are fascinating in their extremity not in their happiness.
I always had a larger view. I'm interested in real life - my family my friends. I have tried never to define myself by my success whatever that is. My happiness is way beyond roles and awards.
