Annette at a Glance Education: Graduated from SFSU's College of Creative Arts in 1980 with honors First role: Narrator in Spanish version of "Three Little Pigs" in sixth grade If she never acted, she might have been: "A grade school teacher. I love working with children." Words to live by: "If it's challenging and difficult, it's worth doing." Personal hero: Her sister-in-law, Billy, who recently lost her battle with cancer On being a mother and an actor: "It's such a privilege to do both." Life imitating art: Annette's husband has expressed interest in becoming "The American President." Resting on her nightstand: Ian McEwan's "Saturday," and it may be resting there for a while. Like any working mother, Bening says she reads "a few pages in bed at night and falls asleep." Knew she'd be a star? "I certainly dreamt about being an actor. But no, I never envisioned I'd be here." Next appearing in: "The Cherry Orchard" on stage at The Mark Taper Forum in February, and "Running With Scissors," a film to be released sometime next year. Film Credits: |
