Kathy Bates on Matlock, Misery, and What’s Beneath the Page

Kathy Bates joins Hungry Dogs with James Patterson for a discussion about artistic roots, the long path a creative career requires, and Bates’ experiences and thoughts while filming ‘Matlock’ on CBS. Kathy talks about her first opportunities at SMU in Texas and then in New York, off-Broadway, and how they helped catapult her stage and screen career. They share some of the ways they’ve kept their artistic spark lit, and to Kathy that sometimes means “negotiating with yourself”. She also discusses her takeaways from working with director Rob Reiner on the movie adaptation of Stephen King’s Misery, and how her love of reading and words informs her work as an actor.
