[quote=Anonymous]It is a difficult life, especially for women. She will need a tough skin, with regard to her looks. I disagree with her going anywhere that does not result in a bachelor's degree. Most actors need a Plan B, at some point, and a college degree will open up more decent (well paid) alternatives for her. Some examples: I know frustrated actors who opened a drama school for kids, one who got his Masters in Arts Administration and a third who became an agent for actors. One "made it" (i.e., nominated for a Tony, had long running stints in hit TV shows like Everyone Loves Raymond and Frasier. He is the fluke. The OP is right to support his daughter, who sounds very talented. But hopefully, he can encourage her to come up with a practical plan for her future. [/quote]
