Kiernan Shipka

“I'm a big fan of L.A.”

“I really had the best time on 'Mad Men.' It was a wonderful place for me, because I never went to an acting school or anything like that, so 'Mad Men' was kind of my training.”

“If I could have any superpower, I would want hyper-intelligence.”

“Any day acting is an amazing day.”

“I had a really traumatizing experience growing up. When I was, like, 10 or 11, I was vegan. I'm not anymore, but I was, and I went to this hot dog place because I heard they had a veggie dog. I took a bite, and literally - I kid you not - it was a carrot in a bun. Horrifying.”

“Young people deserve to be portrayed with depth.”

“To be quite honest, my fans growing up were my friends' parents. Like, 30-plus was, like, 'Mad Men' age group.”
