Out of perverseness, I jumped on the subway and went down to a sound stage on Fourth Street to watch the shooting of Kay Doubleday's big strip scene in Mad Dog Coll, a gangster film that can still, to my embarrassment, be seen occasionally on late-night TV...

Growing up I did commercials and things like that, but nothing serious. As I got older, my family is really hardcore into academics.

Doubleday Quotes By Kaitlin Doubleday

My favorite thing about this business is you're just jammed in a room on a set with like-minded people - writers, directors, and art designers and hairdressers.
