I decided at age 9, but I was reinforced at age 13 when a teacher

I decided at age 9, but I was reinforced at age 13 when a teacher told me I had talent. I cant say she really motivated me because I already knew. I knew I had talent. I went to the Jewish community theater and got in plays there. Then I went for the movies. – Richard Dreyfuss
