Quotes
[on discussing one of her two favorite Batman episodes] My first is 'Harley and Ivy.' I love it because there's a great relationship between Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy. Anybody who has ever had a girl friend obsessed with some guy, and you just wanted to tell her to 'get over yourself' can relate. I also love all her stuff pertaining to the Joker. I thought it was cute when Harley did the drawing of the joker's face in her salad. I also liked working with Diane Pershing (Poison Ivy) very much.
