Biography of Gale Anne Hurd
A lot of my films have dealt with the dark side of technology and stress that you have to examine the ramifications of progress.
Tags: Dark, Stress, TechnologyFilmmaking is a business and at the bottom line people who don't make fiscally responsible decisions end up going into another line of work.
Tags: Business, End, WorkI just like the comic book sensibility. If I can turn them into films and TV series, that's just icing on the cake.
Tags: Book, Cake, TurnI'm a huge historical fiction and non-fiction fan.
Tags: Fan, Fiction, HistoricalI've always loved comic books, which is why I've done films like 'Hulk' and 'The Punishers.'
Tags: Done, Loved, WhyWe tend to be more environmental at home than at work, regardless of the industry we're in.
Tags: Home, Industry, WorkA lot of producers now are people who stay in their office and never go to the set. I don't know how you can be the advocate of the movie if you're not there in it every day.
Tags: Movie, Office, StayI also love the zombie genre, my zombie fandom going way back to 'Night of the Living Dead.' And 'The Walking Dead' is truly the ultimate representation of that sensibility in the comic book genre.
Tags: Book, Love, NightI'm just attracted to the action element of science fiction. It's great to sit in the editing room with the director and sound engineers and to create the feeling where your heart is racing and you're sitting at the edge of your seat and you find yourself holding your breath.
Tags: Great, Science, YourselfI've always been a fan of sci-fi, fantasy, and horror. I like working with larger-than-life characters in fascinating worlds - places where the rules are different.
Tags: Horror, Rules, WorkingWhat's so wonderful about 'The Walking Dead' is that we're able to explore human nature in its most depraved as well as its most humanitarian in each episode.
Tags: Human, Nature, WonderfulThe more accountable I can make you, the easier it is for you to show you're a great performer.
Tags: Great, Performer, ShowWe need to temper the idea that this company has to have some earthshaking event every 15 minutes.
Tags: Company, Idea, TemperSometimes I have wondered whether life wouldn't be much more amusing if we were all devils, and no nonsense about angels and being good.
Tags: Good, Life, SometimesI'm not going to launch a bikini business and then give up bikinis, am I?
Tags: Bikini, Business, GiveI'm pretty nice. I'm far from an ax murderer. I've never been mean to anyone in my life.
Tags: Life, Mean, NiceI've always wanted to be a spy, and frankly I'm a little surprised that British intelligence has never approached me.
Tags: British, Surprised, WantedIn America uniformed cops eat in coffee shops, diners and restaurants and I always feel safer having them around.

It's definitely part of my job description not to be too fat.
Tags: Definitely, Fat, JobIt's very hard to get the dynamics where two people can stimulate each other and be happy.
Tags: Happy, Hard, StimulateYou know, you want to be a success. You want people to know who you are.
Tags: SuccessI always found when I was reading an interview with an actor that I wasn't interested in their political opinions - I just wanted to know what they'd had for breakfast.
Tags: Political, Reading, WantedI certainly don't want a child of mine to be famous, or anyone I was very close to who isn't yet... It's the worst thing to be trapped in your house not be able to leave.
Tags: Able, Child, FamousI keep getting these extraordinary letteres, really weird ones from American sports stars - I've always thought you were one pretty lady and now that you're single I want to meet you for a drink.
Tags: Single, Sports, ThoughtWhat I really, really want to do is pre-packaged meals. Fabulous versions that are delicious, healthy, not too expensive and very low in fat. So, that's my big dream, because there's a massive hole in the market for that.
Tags: Big, Dream, FatNothing irritates me more than chronic laziness in others. Mind you, it's only mental sloth I object to. Physical sloth can be heavenly.
Tags: Laziness, Mind, OthersI love to see other women in pink. It's good for every shade of skin and hair.
Tags: Good, Love, WomenBreast cancer is being detected at an earlier, more treatable stage these days, largely because women are taking more preventive measures, like self-exams and regular mammograms. And treatment is getting better too.
Tags: Days, Getting, WomenI would seriously question whether anybody is really foolish enough to really say what they mean. Sometimes I think that civilization as we know it would kind of break down if we all were completely honest.
Tags: Enough, Mean, SometimesBeing English, I always laugh at anything to do with the lavatory or bottoms.
Tags: Bottoms, English, LaughDivorce is, of course, difficult for a child. I didn't go through it as my parents stayed together, but I have a lot of friends who did.
Tags: Friends, Parents, TogetherGetting as much sleep as possible and following a healthy diet will stop you from feeling run-down if, like me, you're super-stressed.
Tags: Diet, Feeling, SleepI always wear make-up as I've never seen the point of looking less than your best.
Tags: Best, Looking, PointI am a terrible mixture of being organized, controlling, but chaotic. My desk is monstrous.
Tags: Chaotic, Desk, TerribleI don't know much about only children. I was the middle one of three, and if ever I was alone with mum and dad, it was a rare moment.
Tags: Alone, Children, DadI feel like a semi-single mum.
Tags: MumI know so many people who have battled breast cancer and they didn't all make it.
