What is FOR You Will FIND You

Today’s guest made her screen debut at the age of 13—after attending an open call, she was selected out of 800 young girls to play across from John Voight in DESERT BLOOM. Since then, Annabeth Gish has continued to build a career with roles across from some of Hollywood’s most iconic names. She shares what it’s like sharing the screen with icons like Julia Roberts, Anthony Hopkins, Joan Allen, and Lawrence Fishburn—and what she’s learned from working with so many artists at the top of their game.

From building a career to cultivating a rich personal and family life, she’s candid about how she’s sought out balance in all things, and how she’s managed to continued working year after year. She shares how she approaches her work and how she continues to expand her craft—all while leaving room to TRUST and be surprised!

Her list of credits is extraordinary and practically endless—The Haunting of Hill house, Halt and Catch Fire, X-Files, The West Wing, Nixon, The Bridge, and Mystic Pizza—just to name a few!

QUOTES:

“I have always just wanted to be famous for great work. I think as artists we can be vessels of emotion to be of service to each other…..”

“I approach everything cerebrally first. I like to breakdown the script and then I put all that aside and then I come at it from the HEART.”

“Its ok to be weird. You have to be weird to let go of your inhibitions. You have to break out of the brain.”

“We are fragile beings but we also have all this armor on to fight this industry fight…but we are sensitive beings.”

“What is for you will find you.”

“I want to do something interesting and unique. I want to surprise myself.”
