When I was younger, I was living in that green room and accompanying them to all the different theaters that they worked at.

Oh, yeah! Playing 'Young Jackie' came at the insistence of Roseanne herself. Mom obliged but told me that would not be an option again until I was 18. Truthfully, I grew up not thinking I would act.
