What do you do for your job? I know you used to be a book publicist, but i'm just curious what you do now :)

I do the online communications for The Kennedy Forum, Patrick Kennedy’s nonprofit organization that aims to reform mental healthcare in America. He’s a great man, and it’s a great cause, I feel very lucky to be a part of it.

Basically everything my character Elizabeth could have benefitted from, he wants to make a part of our routine healthcare. “A race to inner space,” as he calls it.

And he came out with a memoir, so I still get to be in the book world even in a peripheral way!

Thanks for your curiosity,

Anna

Would you consider yourself more of an introvert or extrovert?

My leo rising turns me into an extrovert, but I’m usually comfortable right in the middle.

“The painting, the magic and aliveness of it, was like that odd airy moment of the snow falling, greenish light and flakes whirling in the cameras, where you no longer cared about the game, who won or lost, but just wanted to drink in that speechless windswept moment. When I looked at the painting I felt the same convergence on a single point: a flickering sun-struck instant that existed now and forever. Only occasionally did I notice the chain on the finch’s ankle, or think what a cruel life for a little living creature—fluttering briefly, forced always to land in the same hopeless place.”

How often do you exercise?

About 4-5 times a week, I’m a bit of a gym rat. Especially after joining this new gym that’s right down the street from me, which I’ve been loving.

I work from home so I usually make it my opportunity to get out of my apartment and get some air/be around other humans!

I think you should do makeup videos because your eyeliner could cut so many bitches

That made my night! Why even put on eyeliner if it can’t cut a single bitch?

It’s definitely something I’ve thought about, if there’s enough interest I would!
