I love 'Glee.'

People either love me or they think I’m obnoxious. I get that.

I’m a Broadway baby, through and through. It’s my first love, and it’s what brought me to New York in the first place.

I’m a New Yorker; my oven is used for storage.

Theater dressing rooms are my home away from home – my second home, really.

I’m definitely drawn to things that are new, so something specifically for me would have been fun.

Joan Mitchell, Joan Baez, Judy Collins – that was my mom’s era.

I came upon Diana Krall’s jazz arrangement of “A Case of You” several years back. I’ve always wanted to pay homage to both her version and Joni’s, and by proxy, my mom. She’s the one that introduced me to that music.

I really like the melody “Red Wine Is Good For My Heart” and people respond to it. I decided to put it on the album.

My very first tattoo was for my dog, Zora, who died in my arms in New York. Right where her heart stopped beating I got a “Z”.
