Elisabeth Shue

After Leaving Las Vegas I did assume that things would get a lot easier than they’ve been. But it’s just been a mirror of the way my career’s been from the beginning, so for it to have changed would have been strange. My career has never been perfect.

For many years, I decided not to do television because I have three children, but now my youngest is finally old enough to be in kindergarten. So I’m not feeling that kind of tug of not being with her as much.

Growing up with three boys in a heavily male-dominated world, I especially needed to express myself as a woman.
