Well, here's what happened, briefly. Between 9th and 10th and 10th and 11th grades in Pittsburgh, there was a six-week offering at Carnegie Mellon University in art, and I'd had some flair for that, and then music, da-da-da-da. And my mom was taking me through the brochure, and she said, you want to go to this thing? I said, yeah. She said, well, they have this acting thing. I said...

Maybe this, the acting thing, maybe I'll do that. Really? Yes. Well, I did that and I was, by the end of that, and I did it for two years running, I was deeply in love with that campus and acting and, you know, just, that's when I started to write on the shower door every morning, please God, let me be an actor. Da-da-da-da-da-da. And then I tried out for that school. They turned me down.

I gave a bad audition to get into the school. It's very competitive. But one of the teachers there, Mordecai Loner, said, oh, I used to teach with Sandy Meisner. I took with him. Then I taught with him. You know, I'll help you on audition if you want to go to New York and audition for NYU. Wow. Check in with Sandy Meisner. I did. Sandy Meisner, I lied about my age.

You weren't supposed to be 17, but I said I was a year older than I was. I got in, and that's what happened. I went to the neighborhood playhouse in 1970 when I graduated high school, and at 17, just turning 18 that fall, started that course. I love you.

Well done. Well, that's good. But this was a fancy two-year program if you really wanted to be an actor. And they used to, Sandy Meisner and other people that imitated him, have a jaundiced eye, make kind of comments about the college programs.
