Steppenwolf Theatre Company Blog – Chicago Theater, World-Class Ensemble

One of my favorite parts of doing my job as an actor is the research. I’ve been reading The Lost Apple by Maria de Los Angeles Torres, which has been a real eye opener. I knew a tiny bit about the Pedro Pan flights before I ever read Sonia Flew, but reading the book and learning the details has been incredible. It’s just so hard to imagine leaving family, home, language, EVERYTHING behind at 15–let alone 6 or 7. And yet, it has happened, many times in human history. I guess I feel humbled thinking about that.
