I was born in Georgia. That's where my grandparents-and all my people-are from. But my family traveled a great deal because my dad was in the army as a helicopter pilot.
I look at him [son Eric] and I think of my dad all the time.... I was born to be a dad.
Once the travel bug bites, there is no known antidote.
I caught the acting bug from my dad.
Every pilot thinks they're the best pilot in the world. I think I'm the best pilot.
People bug you all the time. Sometimes, it's a good bug, when they say you're doing a good job. When it's not a good bug, it's even worse.
My dad was Chinese-American and very conservative when it came to his family's futures. He said if I wanted to have a secure job, I should go into science. So I did what Dad said and went to medical school, but the writing bug never left me.
In between being born in Nazi Germany, and marriage to my dad - of which I think marriage to my dad might have been worse - my mother had a very difficult and complicated life.
Once the travel bug bites there is no known antidote, and I know that I shall be happily infected until the end of my life
My dad's an ex-policeman, and my mum is a sales representative, and they haven't got the acting bug. Bless them.
It would be nice to be a professional pilot. I'm an amateur pilot at the moment. I've got a lot of friends in the RAF and I don't think I've ever met a group of people who love their job as much as they do.
I think my love of music comes from my dad. I was born with an ear for music, like him, and started with the piano when I was 4 but fell in love with the drums. My dad always has music playing.
My mom was a pilot, and my dad wrestled polar bears.
There's no such thing as a natural-born pilot.
From an actor's point of view, you never really like to hope that anything will go beyond the pilot. I'd always say to my agent every time I filmed a pilot, 'Great! Well, I'll see you at pilot season.'
My dad did a radio show. I was on it when I was seven. So now you know that the showbiz bug bit me really early.
