On this early bird episode of The Yay, Norman and I entertain talented actress Gwen Loeb. We talk about politics - specifically California politics (we're hoping Gavin Newsom won't incite the wrath of right wing voters in the midterms by going too far left). Gwen also shares her background, growing up in Illinois and her experience as a working actress in the bay area since 1995. We also have a spirited discussion on how directors should approach actors.
