BLYTHE DANNERMostly, I spend my time being a mother to my two children, working in my organic garden, raising masses of sweet peas, being passionately involved in conservation, recycling and solar energy.
BLYTHE DANNERWhether you’re on TV or on the stage, you have to work hard to stay fresh, real, and full of energy. You can’t settle back. You always have to stay on your toes.
BLYTHE DANNERI try to avoid a specific image. I seek to play as many different women as I can to avoid having a label put on me.
BLYTHE DANNEROnstage or in films, you do affect peoples’ lives, and sometimes that’s very gratifying. But still, there’s this little voice that says you should be doing something that matters.

BLYTHE DANNERI was raised in a time where children were still seen and not heard basically, so I think a lot of us in my generation went the other way and just tried to be as much more liberal and open and we’re still paying for it.
BLYTHE DANNERFortunately I had a terrific agent in New York who kept me going from job to job.
BLYTHE DANNERPart of me says that no life will work if I can’t make this one right.

BLYTHE DANNERI’m mostly a jazz fan and I’ve never really been into rock ‘n’ roll music.
BLYTHE DANNERYou really have to work hard and diligently. Sometimes actors can be lazy and get away with it, but you can’t do that if you’re a musician.
BLYTHE DANNERI feel that its our children who do give us hope because they are the ones who are going to save the world.
BLYTHE DANNERActing is really only part of my life. I’m addicted to it.
