John Cusack: “I kept telling Rhoda she should move to LA and get her own sitcom… I guess LA’s loss is Atlanta’s gain.” (Runaway Jury)

Jackie Burch: “When I moved here from LA and met Rhoda, I remember a director jumping up, throwing his arms in the air with joy, from having an actor who is so solid and with quite the range. I was beaming.” (Casting Director)
