Recently Kate Mulgrew answered questions submitted to her by visitors to the Totally Kate website. Thanks to everyone who submitted their questions - and there were many! And a very special THANK YOU to Kate Mulgrew for taking the time to answer!

http://www.totallykate.com/interv/feb05.html

Totally Kate Website - Questions for Kate
Thanks to everyone who sent in questions for Kate. There were so many good ones that it was hard to pick just 20! Wish I could have asked them all but Kate was so gracious about agreeing to do this that I didn’t want to overwhelm her with questions. Received the answers yesterday! Kate wrote them out in long-hand so I have to type them in and make the webpage. I’m shooting for the weekend, if not before. Meanwhile I thought I’d pass along the first two just to whet your appetites. So here they are, 18 more to follow!

1.You’ve been playing Katharine Hepburn now for over three years. Are you still learning about her? Is she still surprising you? Is there anyone else whose life you would like to explore, and subsequently play? - Brenda

I am continually learning about Katharine Hepburn, which makes playing her a constant challenge - she continues to inspire and delight me. Would love to play the great Italian actress, Eleanora Duse.

2. Hi I’m Nina from Denmark, my question for Kate is: If you could wish for anything in the world, what would it be? It has to be something for you!

The well-being and personal growth of my sons and the health and happiness of my husband.

3. Was there one moment on voyager where Kate’s Janeway and the writer’s Janeway were in complete harmony? I am trying to ask what was the quintessential Janeway scene or moment? The moment that you felt the audience was seeing the whole Janeway as you understand her and want her to be understood. - jc

Answer coming soon!
