“I'm one of relatively few stage-trained actors who doesn't much like acting on stage. It feels kind of like riding the Cyclone at Coney Island, which I did when I was eight. When it was all over, I was glad I had done it, but most of the time when it was actually happening, I was just kind of hanging on for dear life.” FeelsKindDoneActorsActingStageHappeningsDearEightGladIslandsRidingHanging OnCyclonesDear LifeConey Island Author:Fred Melamed
“I was always around people who were in the business from the time I was an absolute baby. I grew up in New York City, and my parents, my sister, and I had a house on Fire Island, and they were part of a set of people that were all close and friendly, most of whom were involved in show business in one regard or another. So it was always familiar to me, and I kind of enjoyed it.” PeopleKindShowsHouseParentCitiesFireNew YorkBabyGrewInvolvedGrew UpAbsolutesRegardFamiliarEnjoyedIslandsFriendlyNew York CityMy SisterShow Business Author:Fred Melamed
