An episode from 11/4/22: Tonight, I talk about creativity and wonder what actors and writers have in common. In the most general sense of finding solace in the anecdotes from the working lives of other creative people, I also mention the revelation that Inside the Actor\'s Studio was, for me, in my early twenties.

\\n

The springboard for much of what I say is Simon Callow\\u2019s \\u2060article in the New York Review of Books\\u2060, which itself is a review of Isaac Butler\\u2019s \\u201chistory\\u201d of Method acting, \\u2060The Method: How the Twentieth Century Learned to Act\\u2060.
