My mom was an actress in the local Seattle theater doing experimental plays. – Rainn Wilson
My dad wanted to name me after Rainier Maria Rilke, the poet. – Rainn Wilson
My dad was always such a frustrated artist. He always worked very hard to support his family, doing a bunch of ridiculous jobs. He wanted to be a painter, but then he also wrote science-fiction novels in his spare time. – Rainn Wilson
