“I knew from a young age that I wanted to be an actor. I never even thought about other careers. The acting field is certainly not the path many Indian parents encourage their children to take, but mine were very supportive. They wanted me to have an education, but understood that this is what I wanted to do.” ChildrenAgeWantedYoungActorsParentActingCareersPathFieldsMinesUnderstoodIndianSupportiveYoung Age Author:Archie Panjabi
“I was going to be a High School teacher. I was studying at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, up in Canada. I was also acting in a wonderfully supportive theatre community in Edmonton. There's a lot of support for theatre there. So, I was having a great time, but I didn't consider acting as a serious career initially, because even the most successful actors that I know in Edmonton are not super successful. Acting over there is just not a success-oriented career.” KnowsSchoolActorsCommunityActingCareersSupportStudySuccessfulTeacherSeriousHigh SchoolUniversityTheatreCanadaSupportiveGreat TimesSchool TeachersAlbertaHigh School TeachersEdmonton Author:Nathan Fillion
