Meet the Artists at The Lillian Booth Actors Home




Aideen on meeting playwright Samuel Becket:

“I started to giggle, and he said, ‘What are you laughing at?’ And I said, ‘At you, you’re very funny.’”








Larry’s favorite composers:

“Bach and Rachmaninoff. (My teacher was Rachmaninoff’s second cousin!)”









Judith on aging:

“We get more compassion. We get more understanding of what life is about. We get more comprehension of human relationships.”





You’re invited to meet some of the most fascinating people in show business—the actors, musicians, dancers and many other talented arts professionals who reside at The Lillian Booth Actors Home in Englewood, New Jersey! Our series of Q&A resident interviews continues on our Blog with three talented artists—actor Aideen O’Kelly; musician and singer Larry Woodard; and actor, writer and director Judith Malina. Stay tuned for more Actors Home Q&As to come!
