My Take

Sandy Martin is a masterclass in the value of the character actor. You might know her from Napoleon Dynamite, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Big Love or Ray Donovan, and in each she does that rare thing: she changes the temperature of a scene the moment she appears. What raises my respect is the range beyond performing, she's also a playwright, director and producer, which tells me she understands roles from the inside out. I'm always more interested in the people who make a story feel lived-in than the ones merely lit at the center, and Martin's whole career is a lifelong commitment to exactly that craft.

Overview

Sandy Martin is an American actress, playwright, director, and producer. She is best known for her roles in the film Napoleon Dynamite and the TV series Big Love, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and Ray Donovan.
