Design Matters from the Archive: Claire Danes

There’s just something about Claire Danes that makes her hard not to watch. And we’ve been watching for a long time. As a teenager in the 1990s she played Angela Chase in the much loved but short-lived tv show My So Called Life. After many film and theater roles, she starred in the much loved and long-running series Homeland. Which won her a few Emmy awards for outstanding lead actress. Homeland just wrapped up after it’s eighth and final season and you can’t help but wonder what this actor will do next to compell us to watch her again.

On this episode Claire talks to Debbie about her long career, and what she learned about spies from playing one. “A lot of times spies marry spies, for obvious reasons—same reason actors marry actors.”
