I just wanted to say I am a fan of your work, I've enjoyed your unique characters since Millenium with Lance Henrikksen. I would have liked to have seen Director Kendall's role expanded in Season 3 of Alias, especially after he revealed to Sydney his involvement with her 2 missing years. But alas, such is the way of things.

When you portray a character, how do you go about developing their persona and integrating your own creativity into the role?

Thank you for taking the time to read and answer.

Hi, VinnySem,
It's pretty involved, actually, because there a lot of different scenarios. Sometimes the script does most of the work and sometimes the actor does. I read it a lot and try to imagine how each scene works. Then I try to tie everything together. I try to stay as close to myself as possible while also trying to make the character consistant and interesting. If I could write a book.................
