I\u2019m so proud to have been part of such a stellar ensemble of performers&#8230; Not a single one of which I truly didn\u2019t have a GREAT time with. The cast of @americancrimestoryfx was something truly special. Regardless if I actually had scenes with them or not, these are just SOME of the @sagaftra members that made this such an amazing experience for me, on and off camera. I hope they know that just in saying each of their names, I think fondly on our individual time together and am so grateful for their talent and warmth of spirit.
