I never thought I'd be able to get into the Springsteen keynote, but did. It was great.



2. Jeffrey Tambor Acting Workshop

This is probably my 4th time going to this acting workshop. I've learned a lot from Jeffrey Tambor over the years. This year I learned not to allow any one to take away your confidence from you.

He had two great actors this year, as he always does.

5. HBO Girls

HBO Girls - Apatow Center Stage

This was a look inside the creators and cast of the new HBO show Girls. I love hearing about the writing process and behind the scenes. This was a great session and I'm looking forward to the show.
