[on playing "Ramrod" the pimp in Vice Squad (1982)]/ It's interesting about that role. I didn't prepare a damn for it. I was doing the soap opera "The Young and the Restless" (1973) and dying to get out of it; I'd been on it for about three and a half years. We were shooting it during the day and all night long I would do "Vice Squad." I was so tired I didn't have any social graces at all, so I just let go.
I just like putting new skin on and going in and doing some new character. My problem is that I've never been able to find the top to go over. There's a lot of room up there.
