“My favorite charity is the Women's Refugee Commission and the Nomi net...” — Mamie Gummer Quote

My favorite charity is the Women's Refugee Commission and the Nomi network.

All the women that are first born daughters in my family are named Mary, but we've all been given nicknames. I don't know how or why that started, but I'm nicknamed after my great-grandmother, who was Mamie. No one ever calls me Mary, except only if my husband is very serious about something.

I feel like I've been the star of my own show for a while now. I was always putting on shows as a kid, and obviously, my household was really creative.

I have roles in plays that I hope that I'll be able to do one day. I might be doing them at, like, the East Wilton Playhouse in wherever. But I think that Edie Falco... to get something even resembling her type of roles, that would be amazing.

I do my bit for charity.

I started as a stand-up comedian at charity shows in Mumbai.

During my time supporting Marie Curie, I've met so many people who have been helped by the charity.

Everybody in life is pursuing money: left, right, charity, nonprofits, everybody's pursuing money. Everybody wants a raise. Everybody wants to improve their standard of living. Everybody wants to be rich, and especially those that go to Washington.

I give a tenth of my salary to charity every month, so in terms of giving back, I do my best.
