I think it’s important to find humor anywhere you can. In real life, with the darkest, scariest, most intense moments, if you can find something funny, that’s good. – Katie Lowes
I think it’s just important to be always bouncing between TV and theater, and hopefully I’ll get to do movies at some point. – Katie Lowes
In high school, I had a couple girlfriends who had very extreme eating disorders. Anorexia and bulimia. And in college as well. It’s just heartbreaking. As someone going through it, it’s heartbreaking. And as a friend who’s helping a friend going through it, it’s heartbreaking. It’s a real, real disease. – Katie Lowes
Everybody has parts of themselves that they’re not 100% happy with – that’s what makes you human. And being an actor, your job is to play human beings. Your job is to play real people. – Katie Lowes
To have an opportunity to get in front of a camera every single day is just priceless because it gets you closer and closer to being less self-consciousness in front of it and really being human and really making choices and standing by them. – Katie Lowes
If you can find a group of women, any age, who are supportive and kind and love you, that’s the best. I have a group of girlfriends that I would lay in front of a bus for. They’ve picked me up through really, really bad times and I can definitely say I’ve done the same for them. – Katie Lowes
I went to NYU Tisch for undergrad, and it was amazing. My life then was extremely experimental with acting. I did crazy theater where we would be rolling around on the floor. I would be playing grandmothers, and clowns, and all this crazy stuff. Then I would be doing Shakespeare eight hours a day. – Katie Lowes
Acting is a growing tick muscle. I really believe that it’s similar to being a musician in that the more you practice it in any capacity, as much as you practice doing it every day, the better you get. – Katie Lowes
I look so fondly back on that time in my life when you first got an agent and you were in your mid-twenties and the world was your oyster. – Katie Lowes
I love singing! I was a musical theater girl in high school. We were always singing and dancing around, and just doing little community theaters and high school musicals. Then, when I got to NYU, I focused more on drama. – Katie Lowes
‘Scandal’ has been, for me, the most consistent time I’ve ever logged in front of a camera. I grew up in the theater, and I feel very confident and comfortable on the stage and in front of a live audience, but the camera is a very different medium. – Katie Lowes
Kerry Washington is a mentor to me. She is so strong and smart. She’s also so giving and supportive. – Katie Lowes
