A biography for Carrie Coonhasn’t been written yet.
“I really have the good fortune that the actors who work with me on 'The Leftovers' are thoughtful, hard working, open people and generous people.”
“My family was always wondering why I ended up playing people who were mentally ill, insane, downtrodden, and a little crazy. I think what they don't understand is that most female parts are written basically as hysterical women.”
“I think if people stick with 'The Leftovers,' it's a very rewarding viewing experience. I wanted to be part of that - and what a great cast we got. I wanted to be one of those actors, in that show!”
“I grew up with babies, so babies have never been particularly intimidating to me.”
