I can juggle, not well… I can balance a broom on my chin. I can do very simple carny tricks, a little sleight of hand with cards and coins. Rich Sommer Read Quote
The 12 years that I was improvising are why I got the number of commercials I got when I was in New York and why I got ‘The Devil Wears Prada,’ and it’s why I even got in the door for ‘Mad Men.’ Rich Sommer Read Quote
I think not every improviser is a good stage actor. Certainly not every stage actor is a good improviser. Rich Sommer Read Quote
The work that I’ve gotten in the hiatuses seems to indicate that I will have a little more work after ‘Mad Men’ than I did when I was scraping by while I was temping in New York, but who knows? People very easily could be like, ‘Meh, we’re done with that. We’ve got Jon Hamm. We’re good without the weird one with glasses.’ Rich Sommer Read Quote
Before ‘Mad Men,’ I definitely had very dry spells and I know what those feel like, and I don’t think that ever leaves you as an actor. Rich Sommer Read Quote
I have an RSS reader, Feeddler. I mostly subscribe to board game blogs – they have reviews of new games and discussions about trends. It’s straight-up dork talk. Rich Sommer Read Quote
I listen to a lot of podcasts, which are split down the middle between comedy and board game podcasts, and a couple of eclectic ones like ‘The Dinner Party’ from NPR, where they take an event that happened that week in history and give you a cocktail recipe inspired by it. Rich Sommer Read Quote
I’ll usually stay up a little later than my wife and play Xbox, a little ‘Modern Warfare 3.’ Or I’ll have a friend over, and we’ll play board games until late at night. I’ll always choose fun over sleep. Rich Sommer Read Quote
I’m pretty quick to delete something off of my phone if it’s become obsolete. And things like RSS readers have made life easier – all of the headlines are going to be related to a topic I’m interested in. Rich Sommer Read Quote
I’m a Joseph Abboud fan. I’m a Hugo Boss fan. I’m a Brooks Brothers fan. As far as suits go, those are my go-tos. Rich Sommer Read Quote
