“I grew up in New York City in the '80s, and it was the epicenter of hip-hop. There was no Internet. Cable television wasn't as broad. I would listen to the radio, hear cars pass by playing a song, or tape songs off of the radio. At that time, there was such an excitement around hip-hop music.” SongCitiesCarNew YorkTelevisionGrewInternetGrew UpHip HopRadioHipsExcitementHopsBroadsNew York CityTape80sCablesHip Hop Music Author:Michael Rapaport

“I did some professional radio acting as a teenager, and I essentially put myself through college with radio acting in Montreal. When I graduated, I got jobs in professional theatres, repertory, and stock theatres in Canada for a couple of years. And then I went to Stratford, Ontario, where I spent three years with a Shakespeare company. We took a classical play from Stratford to New York City, and I got some good notices there and essentially stayed and did live television. And that brings you to the beginning of filming.” YearsPlayJobsThreeActingCitiesCompanyNew YorkTelevisionCollegeCoupleRadioTheatreTeenagerCanadaNew York CityThree YearsMontrealOntarioLive Television Author:William Shatner
