Home Actress Emily Swallow HD Photos and Wallpapers April 2024 Emily Swallow Instagram - I used to joke that Carl stole my line when I was given a poster to sign and I’d see that he’d already written in his huge writing: “This is the Way.” I’d grumble to him about it and I loved seeing that sly grin. But on #thisisthewaywednesday, all I can think is that he embodied that line in so many ways. He walked The Way by being a constant student, always wanting to learn more about the craft and about the heart and soul of his fellow artists. He walked The Way by trusting his instincts and pitching outside-the-box ideas for characters- I loved hearing stories about this in Q&A panels at conventions. And he walked The Way in his desire to represent humanity as faithfully as possible when he was directing and acting. His physical presence could be intimidating for sure, but the longer I knew him the more I loved how that huge frame made his moments of childlike glee all the more exhilarating. He loved the craft of PLAY. Thank you to everyone who has been posting tributes, photos and stories.

Emily Swallow Instagram – I’ll admit – I was intimidated by Carl when I first met him.  Even when I was suited up in my armor, I was so aware of his size…not just his physical mass, but his confidence and swagger.  He knew the impact he had in this sense but, instead of trying to make himself smaller to make people comfortable, he made his generosity and curiosity bigger to welcome people in.  His seeking and delight in discovery is what I will remember the most.  His career spanned decades, but he never tired of talking about the craft of acting.  He had a student mindset, and whenever he directed something, he genuinely wanted feedback.  He’d text when an episode was about to air and he’d say “Please, tell me what you think.  I really want to know.”

He approached the craft as a human being first and foremost, no matter what world we were exploring.  When we’d get frustrated with technical aspects on set, he brought it back to “what do these people need deep down?” We shared o love of theater, and he came to see me in a production of King Lear where the phenomenal Joe Morton played Lear.  He took the time to stay afterwards and talk about what intrigued him.

I had the best time getting him to goof off at conventions, whether we were posing for a prom picture, capturing a jump shot, or hosting a push-up cosplay contest during our panel.  Speaking of panels – I absolutely loved sharing the stage for Q&A panels with him.  His stories were always vivid and personal, but he cracked me up when someone would ask him a complex question about similarities between two seemingly disparate characters and he’d say “I got paid to do both of them.” He delighted in the craft, but he was also very practical about it; he never lost sight of the humans underneath the characters. 

I’m in shock, as all of us are, that he’s gone.  He always seemed so robust, so full of life.  The thought of him stopping was impossible. 

To his kids and family- our hearts are with you.  Thank you for sharing him with us.
