I was thrown into a community production of ‘Bye Bye Birdie’ or something when I was a kid. I wanted to just build the sets, but I wasn’t allowed to just build the sets unless I auditioned for the play. So I auditioned for the play and was thrown into the chorus. During the course of that I fell in love with it, and I never really turned back. Michael Stuhlbarg Read Quote
I’ve done a lot of theater work that has been quite diverse. I feel very fortunate to have had many different people think of me in many different ways. So, as an actor that’s all you – all I want is diversity. So far in film and television work I have done has not been as diverse, and I hope it grows to be. Michael Stuhlbarg Read Quote
