Ms. Namita Nayyar: What advice and motivational words do you have for aspiring actresses?
Ms. Betsy Landin: Don’t give up. This business can be really hard and you’ll have your days when you’ll just want to throw in the towel, but perseverance is key. If this is what you love to do, pursue it. Take classes, put in the time, ask questions, knock on lots of doors, and you’ll see results. Overnight success often takes years of preparation so be ready when that door does open.
Ms. Namita Nayyar: Who has been your inspiration and motivation that led you to your success in the world of acting?
Ms. Betsy Landin: I think I’ve always had actors and actresses whose work I’ve admired like Meryl Streep, but when it comes to motivation, I’d have to say my dad. It’s been that way my whole life. He taught us to work for the things we wanted and when it came to being in the entertainment industry, let’s just say he wanted me to study engineering or architecture. In the beginning, I worked really hard to show him that the decision I had made to be an actress wasn’t just a ‘foolish gamble’. When I moved to LA, no matter how difficult it was at first, whenever he’d tell me that I could always come back home, I’d reply that this was where I needed to be. Nowadays, I’m motivated by possibility and the desire to see where my career can grow to. Dad is now one of my biggest cheerleaders and respects the fact that I did exactly what he taught me to do.
Ms. Namita Nayyar: You are currently in the process of producing a documentary about The Stryder Canine Foundation, whose mission is to assist animals and their humans with financial & emotional support during their treatment of cancer. What can you tell us about this endeavor of yours?
Ms. Betsy Landin: I met SCF founder Dr. Juli Goldstein after filming the first Dolphin Tale. Her and I became instant friends and one of the things we both shared was our love for our ‘furry children.’ When she told me about her dog Stryder who passed away from cancer and the goal of her foundation, I decided to help. We are in the developing stages of the documentary and have an amazing team working with us to make it happen. For more information on SCF and what you can do to help, visit www.wagstrong.org
