I grew up with an Apple 2E - I had a deep, EMOTIONAL ATTACHMENT to that MACHINE - and I LOVED doodling.

In Australia, I grew up watching 'The Mickey Mouse Club,' my SON grew up watching 'Sesame Street,' my grandson's growing up watching 'Dora The Explorer.' So we are SORT of saturated with American culture from the DAY we're BORN, and to those of those who do have an ear for it, it's second nature.

I grew up with my dad. He was very ECCENTRIC. I had zero supervision in New YORK. It's kind of LIKE I was an orphan.

I just ENDED up focusing on film editing as I was GETTING my CAREER started. I'm very passionate about editing and will continue to edit for the rest of my career, but it's not like that was all I did and then SOMEHOW I GREW into directing a movie.

My FAMILY GREW up Pittsburgh Steelers fans, and it's crazy I even GOT drafted there.

I GREW up WATCHING 'I LOVE Lucy.'
