“I tend not to think about audience when I'm writing. Many people who read "The Giver" now have their own kids who are reading it. Even from the beginning, the book attracted an audience beyond a child audience.” PeopleThinkingWritingChildrenBookKidsReadingAudienceGiver Author:Lois Lowry
“Adults are interested if you don't play down to the little 2 or 3 year olds or talk down. I don't believe in talking down to children. I don't believe in talking down to any certain segment. I like to kind of just talk in a general way to the audience.

“When I did TV shows and movies, the studios did demographic research. They were shocked to find that my audience isn't just men who are too drunk to turn off the TV after football. It's women, too. I don't know exactly why, other than that I've tried to remain true to myself for all these years. I have gone through a lot, and I've been open about it. Maybe they look at me and can see how you can grow up, have children, continue to be sexy, get married and divorced and, though you grew up poor, live the American dream. I'm very blessed. I'm happy for it all.” KnowsMenYearsLooksChildrenShowsDreamTurnsGrowsPoorAudienceGoneGrowing UpFootballTvsGrewMarriedGrew UpResearchBlessedStudiosSexyDrunkAmerican DreamTv ShowsShockedLook At MeDivorcedDemographicsTurn OffTrue To Myself Author:Pamela Anderson
“I didn't like what was on TV in terms of sitcomsit had nothing to do with the color of themI just didn't like any of them. I saw little kids, let's say 6 or 7 years old, white kids, black kids. And the way they were addressing the father or the mother, the writers had turned things around, so the little children were smarter than the parent or the caregiver. They were just not funny to me. I felt that it was manipulative and the audience was looking at something that had no responsibility to the family.” WayYearsChildrenLittlesKidsMotherFatherFeltParentBlackTermWhiteResponsibilityAudienceSawsColorTvsSmarterLittle KidSitcomManipulativeCaregivers Author:Bill Cosby
“I certainly wouldn't compare the rewards of watching one's children grow and mature with that of money piling up at the box office. Both are pleasant, but to varying degrees. As the old saying goes, you can't take an audience home with you. You can't depend on the loyalty of fans, who, after all is said and done, are just faceless people one seldom sees. And few stars have their fans forever. But a child is forever. That bond and relationship is timeless and doesn't depend on your looks, age or popularity at the moment.” PeopleLooksChildrenSaidDoneMomentsHomeAgeStarsGrowsAudienceForeverFansDependsOfficeDegreesRewardsBoxesLoyaltyComparePleasantMaturePopularityTimelessBox OfficeSaid And DoneOld SayingFaceless Author:Julie Andrews
“Even as a child, I just leaned towards the scary. I remember seeing Halloween, for the first time. I snuck into the theater and was sitting there with a group of friends in the front row, and I turned back to look at the audience. They were screaming and interacting with the screen and were interacting with Jamie Lee Curtis as she walked through that horrible night. I just thought, "I want to do that."” WantFirstsLooksChildrenRememberNightAudienceSeeingGroupsFrontsSittingFirst TimeTheaterScaryScreensHorribleHalloweenInteractingJamieGroup Of Friends Author:Kevin D.
