About Sarah Baker: Sarah Baker is an American actress best known for roles in TV shows such as Go On and Louie as well as movies like The Campaign.
I admire people who can step out on their own and work alone - that takes a lot of guts. But I'd rather have the camaraderie on and off camera of working as a part of a group.
All the characters I've ever played have really had nothing to do with looks. There's a lot of things that are a lot more interesting to me to play than that.
I don't go around calling myself a fat girl. It doesn't feel fun to me.
As an actor, you want to push yourself.
There are varied experiences of overweight women throughout the country; there's not just one experience.
I would say the biggest difference is that a movie is a shorter, more encapsulated experience, and a TV job is like having a regular day job where you get to do what you love.
I can play a cat lady. I can't put my foot down and refuse to play anything but playing the perfect, well-adjusted woman, because those people aren't as fun or funny.
I'm never happier than when I'm part of an ensemble. The rhythm of working in a group and the dynamic of each individual relationship within that group coming together is such a special thing.
With movies, you get to be in a bubble while you're creating it, and it's not until it comes out that you see whether people like it or not.
