Shirley Knight

Found 4 thoughts of Shirley Knight

I'm writing a book and working on my one-woman show, Learning To Be Human.

My career has been odd in the sense that I did a lot of films early in my career and then for years I only worked in the theater in New York.

Film actors reach a certain level, but they don't get beyond it unless they work in the theater.

When you're a woman in your 40s, it's not the best time to do films, because there really aren't that many roles. Then you reach 50 and there are more roles again. Mother parts.
