I had a great drama teacher in high school, and that's when I started to learn about the history of theater.

I started drama in high school.

My dad was a high school teacher and made no money.

I suppose he's making a real fashion statement, but this is high school. You're not supposed to be real. You're supposed to be enough like everyone else to get through and out into the waiting world.

If I wasn't serving in Congress, I've always wanted to be a high school teacher. Specifically, I want to teach a course on modern American history and use Garry Trudeau's Doonesbury as a primary text.

I started in high school and regional theater. Anything that came into town, I wanted to be involved in, because I just wanted to learn.
