S5 E24: Station 19's Barrett Doss on Broadway, Identity & Staying True to Yourself

Barrett Doss played Victoria Hughes on Station 19 for seven seasons. Before that she was a leading lady on Broadway, starring as Rita in Groundhog Day opposite Andy Karl and winning the Theatre World Award for her debut. Right now you can find her as Emily Henderson in Netflix's remake of Little House on the Prairie.She has her own rule for the industry: don't work for the business, make the business work for you. She explains what that means for anyone trying to break in without losing themselves along the way.We get into growing up with two attorneys as parents and a mom who was a professional athlete before law school, understudying three roles at once and performing with James Earl Jones at 25, the controversial off-Broadway play where they counted how many people walked out each night, navigating identity as a biracial actress in an industry that loves to put people in boxes, and how one audition after Groundhog Day closed changed her entire life.Follow Barrett Doss: instagram.com/dontgo_jasonwaterfallsSubscribe for new episodes every week.
