Jami Gertz

Jami (On her religion): [I'm] a traditionalist more than a very religious person. I love our traditions and celebrating them and the aspect of fulfilling mitzvot and doing good things for your family and friends. I always celebrate the Sabbath at our home.

Jami (On playing Gilda Radner): People started telling me how much they loved Gilda, and I was scared I wasn't going to do her justice...What was profoundly sad to me was how desperately Gilda wanted a baby, because I have three children of my own. I was very aware that I am living the happy ending she would have wanted.

Jami (On working with the charity, Hole in the Wall Gang camp): This camp is really important to all of us. My goal is that we will truly be able to help many children for years and years and make a real difference in their lives.

Jami (On the film 'Keeping Up with Steins'): This picture is about a lot more than bar mitzvahs. It's about a young man coming of age, a grandfather coming back to repair a relationship with his son -- though told with lots of humor, despite all the issues.

Jami (On her short-lived sit-com, 'Sibs'): It really never worked from the beginning. And it was kept [on the air] for some reason. I think professionally for me it was not a great experience. Ultimately, it wasn't funny.

Jami: I love making people laugh.
