"I’ve flown on wires and surfed in the ocean, rode on horses, in wagons, trains and fast cars. I had multiple personalities. I worked in a textile mill, picked cotton. I’ve been Mrs. Doubtfire’s employer, Forrest Gump’s mother, Lincoln’s wife and Spider-Man’s aunt," Field said. 

"I’ve done scenes wearing 50 pounds of period dresses. I’ve been fully clothed, semi clothed and totally naked."

The "80 For Brady" star continued in her speech, sharing that from the time she was 12 years old, she knew she loved acting. "On stage, I never knew what I would say or do. I would surprise myself. I wasn’t looking for the applause or attention, even though that’s nice sometimes," she said. 

"Anyway, it’s never been about a need to hide myself behind the characters of other people. Acting, to me, has always been about finding those few precious moments when I feel totally, utterly, sometimes dangerously alive."
