My first job was as an assistant in the local library. Self-fulfilling prophecy?
- Jodi Picoult
I have always loved horror very much. I used to write stories for DC's House of Mystery. It was one of my first jobs writing for comics, and I loved it.
- Sergio Aragones
My first job was at a Chicago night club called Mr. Kelly's.
- Shelley Berman
People have lots of misconceptions about me. My mum, who is half French and half Spanish, gets outraged when I'm called quintessentially English. I owe my looks to my mum-which was 90 percent of getting my first job. And, some people would argue, 90 percent of my entire career.
- Helena Bonham Carter
It was the desire to do the complete thing. I only took taking acting lessons because my whole thing, really, was to direct. But my first jobs were acting jobs.
- James Coburn
My teachers encouraged me to audition for some professional work during our summer vacation. I landed my first job. It was for the National Theatre Company's Mimika Pantomime troupe. I ended up touring with them for the next two years.
- Didi Conn
My first job now is as a mother, everything else is secondary. My kids understand that I am an actress, and they are always so surprised to hear my voice on a cartoon character, or see my face on a video box. If it ever gets to be too much though, the career and the kids, I will simply set the career aside.
- Joan Cusack
I started off as a juggler. I used to do a half-hour show on the weekends to make money as a kid. Then I went to Cleveland, Ohio in 1983 to the international jugglers competition junior division and came second. So that was my first job, being a juggler.
- Patrick Dempsey
My first job was for a blue jean company as a sitting model. I posed for 15 minutes and made $50. It was 1976.
- Janice Dickinson
I have always had a special affinity for libraries and librarians, for the most obvious reasons. I love books. (One of my first Jobs was shelving books at a branch of the Chicago Public Library.) Libraries are a pillar of any society. I believe our lack of attention to funding and caring for them properly in the United States has a direct bearing on problems of literacy, productivity, and our inability to compete in today's world. Libraries are everyman's free university.
- John Jakes
I started auditioning when I was about 10 and I didn't get my first job until I was 12, and two years at that age is really hard.
- Anna Kendrick
One of my first jobs was at the Boston Globe. I worked in the sports department six months a year. When I was ready to graduate, the sports editor gave me a job as a schoolboy sports writer.
- Will Mcdonough
It was not until I got my first job, at the University of Washington in Seattle, and began playing chess with Don Gordon, a brilliant young theorist, that I learned economic theory.
- Douglass North
My first job in all honesty is going to continue to be mom-in-chief. Making sure that in this transition, which will be even more of a transition for the girls... that they are settled and that they know they will continue to be the center of our universe.
- Michelle Obama
My first job in construction paid my way through art school. I was building to pay my bills.
- Ty Pennington
You know, I never knew if I had any talent when I started in this business. My first job was being a page at The Tonight Show. I saw Jack Paar come out one night and sit on the edge of his desk and talk about what he'd done the night before. I thought, 'I can do that!' I used to do that on a street corner in the Bronx with all my buddies.
- Regis Philbin
My first job was in retail at the age of 14, and I have worked in the industry ever since.
- Rachel Roy
I did this TV show, which was my first job ever. It wasn't a real acting part. It was like this promo for this sitcom and the main actress was meeting three different real people and then she was going to decide who was going to be on the episode.
- Seann William Scott
My first job was in sixth grade, sweeping the clay tennis courts at the yacht club near my house, which I was not a member of. Always had to pay my own rent. But I don't really have any concept of how money works. I don't know how much things cost. Like a BMW. Or a quart of milk. It's embarrassing.
- Chloe Sevigny
My first job after my retirement from baseball was as a narrator for the Eastman Philharmonica.
- Willie Stargell
My first job on 2001 was to make all of the HAL readouts: the 16 screens that surround HAL's eyes.
- Douglas Trumbull
I was 12 years old when I had my first job, delivering packages.
- Damon Wayans
My first job is big sister and I take that very seriously.
- Venus Williams
