      "My favorite actor, since I was a child, has been Audrey Hepburn. She is classic and embodies the idea of effortless acting."

      "I have many favorite actors, in a variety of categories. For comedic actors, I admire Bradley Cooper the most. When it comes to drama, I cannot get enough of Denzel Washington. When it comes to romance, well...Ryan Gosling has it all! I believe the common theme between all of these actors is that, despite their years in Hollywood, they remain level-headed in a challenging industry."
