When I started go-go dancing on tables for a living, I didn't want to tell my mom or my dad. I made 25 dollars a night, and I was able to make my rent, with the four girls I lived with.
Mum and dad thought I was going to say I was pregnant. I said oh no, no, I've just been nominated for a Golden Globe. They were like, oh that's lovely, love.
When I was fifteen years old, my dad won a video camera in a corporate golf tournament. I snatched it from his closet and began filming skateboard videos with my friends.
It was sort of just a family sport. My mom and dad were pretty keen golfers when I was young and so were my grandparents, and I just sort of tagged along with them.
My kids are good artists, and they do a pretty good version of Dad in their caricatures.
The script for 'In Good Company' was the first one I ever showed my dad.
A lot of young filmmakers bring their movies to my dad because he always gives lots of good editing ideas and notes. He'd be a good film professor.
As I've grown older, my testimony has grown a lot, and a lot of it really has to do with my dad. He's been a good example to me. That's really where my testimony started, in just seeing how spiritual and what a good guy he is.
Our dad is not one to impart advice or gloat or reminisce about the good old days. But he's a race car guy, been a car guy forever, and he always wants to talk about cars.
Anybody can be a dad. I just want to be a good parent. I want to be a dad that my kids can talk to. I want to have a relationship with them.
But my dad also was a remarkable man, a good person, a principled individual, a man of integrity.
My father and I have a very good relationship. We always got along. But I always scold him.
I'm blessed to have a dad who's always there for me and a mom who's always there for me, and they're on good terms.
My father was so good-natured and had such a happy disposition. I've always confused him with Jimmy Stewart. So, think Jimmy Stewart. That's my dad.
I started off playing the clarinet, after I was inspired by listening to my dad's Benny Goodman records.
My dad was a fiercely funny guy, and he and his brother would get on runs. So my younger brother and I were basically mimicking them when we started goofing off.
Dad's astute knowledge of foreign policy impressed Gorbachev during the time of the Berlin Wall when Dad refused to gloat during the reunification of Germany.
My dad's name is Robert Stafford. His music name is R. L. Stafford; he makes gospel music.
When my first semester grades came out, my mom and dad told me I wouldn't be playing football.
My dad was going to graduate school at Columbia, in New York, so we moved there. After he graduated, we ended up settling in New York, so I grew up there.
