Rainn Man

The New York Post talks with Rainn Wilson:

Wilson learned acting at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and subsequently lived in New York for 12 years in a number of different neighborhoods — from East Harlem to Fort Greene.

He and his wife — who now have one child, Walter, 2-1/2 — moved to L.A. in the mid-’90s after their Fort Greene landlord bought out their lease. “I came out to L.A. and I booked a pilot and two movies within my first month of coming out,” he says, “and so I thought, ‘Well, God is telling me something.

From Baylor to the office

The Baylor University Lariat speaks to alumna Angela Kinsey:

This season, if the whole cast can’t get together, Kinsey watches the show with her husband, Warren, or with Jenna Fischer, who plays Pam on the show.

“We are like a family,” she said. “We are very close. We love each other. We make each other laugh. I think it is the best job any of us have ever had.”

Despite her newfound success and fame in the seemingly far away land of Los Angeles, Kinsey has stayed true to her Baylor roots.

“I loved my time at Baylor,” she said. “It was everything I thought college should be.”
