Melinda Clarke's Quotes
- They've turned this character into a human being.
- I'm getting a lot of roles as women who are very powerful. I think that's a reflection of me as a person.
- I'm manipulating the audience. I'm making sure people sympathize.
- Usually pilot season is very busy, and there are lots of auditions and lots of near misses and rejections. This year, I had two auditions, landed this role and it felt like being home again.
- I was more of a light opera singer, not really much of a lounge singer.
