Episode 1 - Ashlie Atkinson

Powerhouse actress Ashlie Atkinson talks about working with Spike Lee, Craig Zobel, and Morgan Gould, as well as being on Mr Robot, One Dollar, and Rescue Me. We cover fatphobia in casting and costuming, intimacy as a fat actor, having more than one fat actor on the stage at a time, and mentoring younger fat actors.
