"Her long, successful career in acting is something I'm both proud of and comfortable with," says Berry. "Like most children, there's enough about me as an individual to distinguish myself from my parents. And so far, that seems to be working as far as acting goes." Balasko built her formidable career on brassy comic roles portraying salty, street-smart women.
