Within minutes, my bosses at TPNN approved the travel request as\u00a0they\u00a0also are strong believers in the pro-life movement and wanted to support the film any way possible.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ArticleAd1\">\n<p><!-- \/1011927\/LAN_300_by_250_top_article --><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-1473179053567-0\" class=\"ArticleAd1a\">googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(&#8216;div-gpt-ad-1473179053567-0&#8217;); });<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>AR<\/strong>: <strong>Was this your first appearance in narrative film?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>SNH<\/strong>: It was.\u00a0 My daddy was an actor and appeared in a few films.\u00a0 My mother was a drama major originally and seeing my young love of the theatre after appearing in several musicals in Community Theatre and school, she knew she had to channel my love for telling a story into a career path and broadcasting was perfect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AR<\/strong>: <strong>Did you meet many of the actors in\u00a0<em>Gosnell: America&#8217;s Biggest Serial Killer<\/em>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>SNH<\/strong>: Absolutely!
