Laura Dern on creative passion: being an artist and parent
“I don’t know if I would have made the same choices if I hadn’t grown up around the passion my parents had for playing authentic and deeply flawed characters.
“Their artistic passion existed, like another entity in the house. Now I get that I wouldn’t be a full parent to my kids without it, any more than my parents would have been.”
Laura Dern [LA Times July 16, 2006; her parents are Bruce Dern and Diane Ladd]
