For the actor, The Lee Strasberg Notes are an indispensable companion.
I trained as an actor with Lee Strasberg, Elia Kazan, and Harold Clurman, and those guys set a very high bar.
I was always drawn toward the Actor's Studio. I studied at the Lee Strasberg Institute when I first came to New York. One of my favorite teachers was one of Al [Pachino]'s teachers, a guy named Charlie Laughton, who was just a wonderful, wonderful man.
There are still actors who use emotional memory, affective memory, which was Lee Strasberg's emphasis, not his total emphasis. She taught everything at the Actor's Studio. But nevertheless, she felt that it impeded her.
I always think upon Lee Strasberg with warmth, and reviewing his wisdom is a pleasure.
I studied philosophy at Columbia, then dropped out to do drama at the Lee Strasberg Institute.
I started teaching when I was in my 20s because Lee Strasberg asked me to, and he didn't do that with a lot of people.
As I got older, I would study privately with some coaches. Then I found Lee Strasberg, which I loved.
I left my career in Hollywood, moved back to New York, and went to Lee Strasberg and studied with him for the rest of his life.
I joined the Actors Studio and began to work with Lee Strasberg, and that changed my work.
I never felt Lee Strasberg could act, and I fail to see how someone who can't act can teach acting.
Lee Morgan used to stand behind me when I was playing a ballad and he'd be hollering, "Play the pretty notes, man, play the pretty notes." I thought I was playing the pretty notes, but you know, things like that help you to reach a little further.
I studied acting for 10 years before I went for an audition. I studied with Lee Strasberg and Actors Studio teachers, and went to the High School of Performing Arts.
I was so lucky. I was very broke and I was taking classes at Lee Strasberg's Institute and I saw a 3 X 5 index card on the bulletin board advertising for college-aged girls for a film. That was Animal House.
I was a student of Stella Adler and then later Lee Strasberg, and they were into sensory work. At its best, acting is not about words - even when the words are important.
Subliminally, I had always wanted to act. Although I had only performed in a couple of plays, I was serious about it and was subsequently trained by people like Lee Strasberg and Elia Kazan.
There are people whose sense of reality is very strong, who have a sense of honesty. Lee Strasberg is like that, my grandfather was like that. These are the kinds of men I've had close relationships with.
