My mother was an actress and a director, as well. And my father was a playwright and poet.
I first wanted to be an actress after seeing a play - not a movie.
My father was a stone mason, and a talented amateur pianist and vocalist.
I was in the Minnesota state Senate from 2000 until 2006. In 2006, I was urged to run for Congress, I did. And I've been here ever since.
If God had wanted man to play soccer, he wouldn't have given us arms.
I still love playing music. It was all I ever wanted to do, and I got the chance to do it.
I used to get some ego thing out of saying I wasn't a star, just an actress. Forget it. I'm a star. I wanted it. I worked for it. I got it.
I've always worked with a team of actors and filmmakers ever since I was a kid in Michigan making Super-8 movies.
I used to do a lot of plays in English, Hindi, and Urdu. I wanted to be an actor since I was three and a half.
