It took me forever, learning improvisation, because I had studied with Lee Strasberg - I dropped out of Chicago and went to his classes in New York for a couple of years, once or twice a week. What I didn't realize was I was learning directing because he wasn't all that good about acting, not for me.

Mike Nichols

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.

Karen Allen

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.

Ellen Barkin

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.

Ellen Burstyn

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.

Karen Allen

I trained at the Lee Strasberg Institute at Tisch, which is a huge foundation for young actors. They teach you their methods and give you the sense that acting is much more tangible than most people think. I think there's a mysticism of what acting is, in the fact that it's this ungraspable, spur-of-the-moment thing that nobody can understand.

Roberto Aguire

As I got older, I would study privately with some coaches. Then I found Lee Strasberg, which I loved.

Roberto Aguire

I studied drama in high school, and when I was 18, I studied at the Actors Studio in New York. Then I moved to London when I got engaged to Bryan Ferry, and I studied at the National Theatre there.

Jerry Hall

I studied at university for a term and a day, and then I dropped out.

Jack Garratt

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.

Mark Margolis

For the actor, The Lee Strasberg Notes are an indispensable companion.

Johnny Depp

I always think upon Lee Strasberg with warmth, and reviewing his wisdom is a pleasure.

Francis Ford Coppola

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.

Martin Landau

I dropped chemistry because there was a cute boy, and I figured out if I dropped chemistry, I would be in his drama class.

Wunmi Mosaku

I went to Carnegie Mellon for a year and a month or two, and then I dropped out because I got a movie. I didn't anticipate ever leaving school - I was a really serious drama student - and then that happened, and my life sort of took a turn.
