I'll Cover You... Jessie Martin!

So... my last two tapings for Law and Order were with Jessie Martin. Well, I was in the background and really didn't interact with him (except for a nod passing down the hallway), but he was a mere foot or two away from me. I, of course, being a bit of a Renthead, must admit I got a little tickle in my stomach every time I saw him. I mean for years I dreamed that we would play opposite each other as Tom Collins and Angel. I sang with his voice countless times as I listened to the cast recording. And then he decided to leave the show... and I was there for his last performance. Wow! In this 10th year of living in NY, I'm finding that so many things are making a reappearance in my life. And though I thought it would be in Rent, working with Jessie Martin on Law & Order will do just fine! Plus... he's got the kindest smile ever!
