You've seen Martha Plimpton on The Goonies, Parenthood, Raising Hope, The Real O'Neals, and so many more TV shows and films. Martha talks about being raised in New York by actor parents, competing with Winona Ryder for roles as a teenager, working with directors Sidney Lumet, Woody Allen, and Henry Jaglom, learning empathy and professionalism from her work in the theatre, and acting naturally when Gena Rowlands bums a cigarette off you. Through decades in the business, Martha's overcome the culture of Hollywood, as well as changes in herself, to stay relevant and at the top of her game.
