More quotes by Jenna Fischer
I don't have any type of sketch-comedy or stand-up background.
Jenna Fischer
I had this crazy job, though, when I first got to Los Angeles... I answered this ad in the back of the newspaper to be a telephone psychic, and I did that for two days.
Jenna Fischer
I always worry that people are going to be very confused sometimes timelines get confused with how movies get made. So when I say, Oh, I made this movie when I was going through a divorce, people think, Oh no! She's pregnant with a child and divorced?
Jenna Fischer
I still get nervous when I have a lot of makeup on, a big hairdo, and a dress.
Jenna Fischer
I think we all spend, sometimes, more time at our jobs than we do at home, and there are people that we wouldn't necessarily choose to spend so much time with. So those irritations and those, just those situations I think are really relatable.

Finally, I was called for The Office and I was really lucky, because a lot of the shows that I went out for I would work my way up from, like, an audition with the casting director to the director to the producers to the studio, I'd go through seven auditions, and then they'd give the role to a famous actress.

I spent my whole adolescence, when you just want to be accepted, looking much younger than everyone else.
Jenna Fischer
I was definitely raised this way. My folks are very grounded, normal people, and I wasn't raised in the entertainment industry. I just grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, in a very normal family. I wasn't a child actor or anything like that.
Jenna Fischer
I say it was like this accidental research that I did for eight years. I had no idea I was researching the role of my career. But yeah, and there was this one casting director named Allison Jones, and for five years she would call me in every year for a different TV show and she just really was a big supporter of mine.
Jenna Fischer
Yeah, you know I don't ever see myself doing a super-gritty, hard-core drama.
Jenna Fischer
Well, I knew I wanted to be an actor, and I didn't necessarily need or want to be famous or a celebrity actor.
Jenna Fischer
As the lead of a movie, you really set the tone off-camera as well, and that's a really big responsibility.
Jenna Fischer
I studied theater in college, and I really wanted to be an actress and play a lot of different roles. Then I made landing on a television comedy my main focus.
Jenna Fischer
I'm not one to air my dirty laundry for the whole world.
Jenna Fischer
Tilda Swinton is a great example of a person who completely disappears into a role.
Jenna Fischer
I'd been out in Los Angeles for about eight years, knocking around. I actually, instead of waiting tables, worked in offices as a temporary assistant.
Jenna Fischer
When I'm writing my blog, I think of myself at 13 years old, back in St. Louis, daydreaming about Hollywood.
Jenna Fischer
I get really excited about jewelry.
Jenna Fischer
The Farrelly brothers make movies the way you imagine a movie set would be when you're a kid - fun all the time.
Jenna Fischer
Cause it's really hard, it's hard to be an actor.
