When I first came along in the business, they didn't really like the idea of my name being Raquel.
People were making fun of redheads before I came along.
I am innately very shy, and I have struggled with that challenge for years.
I started acting when I was about 18. I was a model for a couple of years before that.
When I started in the business, I was told I had three good years in me.
It wasn't until I'd turned 50 and had been in the business 25 years that I realized I might actually have a career as an actor.
For the last five years I've been in the production business.
To have striven, to have made the effort, to have been true to certain ideals - this alone is worth the struggle.
I've had a blessed career, and that has been acknowledged in many ways over the years.
