Performer-Professor Kathleen Antonia Tarr: "Oh, I Need to Be Spock!"

DENNIS ANYONE? with Dennis Hensley

Dennis welcomes actor-singer-lawyer Kathleen Antonia Tarr to his Noho condo to talk about going from pursuing a career in show business in Los Angeles to being a professor at Stanford. She talks what she loves about teaching, what the kids are like these days and why grading papers isn't that bad. She discusses her time in L.A., landing a gig on "House," doing a commercial for Cialis and what made her want to leave L.A.. Dating comes up as well and Kathleen explains the application process she implemented to screen potential dates--complete with a $75 handling fee!--and how she ended up meeting her now-husband. Other topics include: why strangers say "Wow" to her in public, the challenges of living in the Bay Area, working with veterans as a lawyer, playing football and not that bullshit powder puff football either, the dating book she plans to write, writing a fan letter to Randy Newman and why she had to dial down her crush on Sting. http://kathleen_antonia.homestead.com/
