When You're In A High-stress

What's Interesting Is, Most Of The People Who Are Fans Of The The Wire Who Black People Or Cops... Most Of The People In The Industry Are The Crew: Writers, Actors And Directors. And So They Understand What It Is That We Do, So They Think, "wow, What A Incredible Group Of Amazing Actors." It's Funny, I Think There Are A Couple Of Reasons Why We Have Never Gotten Any Nomination For Anything Except For Writing.

It's Funny, 90 Percent Of What I've Done Has Been Television, And I Never Really Wanted To Do It That Much. I Was Really Interested In Film And Theater. What's Ironic Is That When I Started Doing Television, I Did A Bunch Of Amazing Shows All In A Row, Starting With The Corner.

Growing Up, I Never Imagined I Would Be An Actor.
