The Interviews: An Oral History of Television
North Hollywood, CA, United States

Actress Judith Light tells the story behind her most memorable moment playing “Karen Wolek” on One Life to Live: the courtroom scene where she admits that she has been prostituting herself. Light shares why she believes the audience responded so forcefully to this scene:

"Watching a person end their life as they know it, expose themselves in such a vulnerable and fragile and difficult way, becomes in some form heroic. Because there isn’t a person on this earth that doesn’t have something to come out about."

Watch Judith Light’s full interview, which spans her career from One Life to Live to Who’s the Boss to Transparent.
