We are excited to have Peter Facinelli as our August cover star. Known for his myriad roles in TV (Fastlane, Supergirl) and film (Can't Hardly Wait, The Scorpion King), I personally loved him in The Twilight Saga film series and Showtime's Nurse Jackie. This July, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the actor-director-writer —or as he likes to call himself, "storyteller"— over Sunday brunch, where he talked with me about what he is working on, directing, and how he always wanted to be an actor (for a long time, he told his parents he wanted to go into a different profession!). I found that perseverance was a recurring theme in this issue. Merriam-Webster's Dictionary defines perseverance as "continued effort to do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition." It is no secret that the key to success is perseverance. In this issue, each of my interviewees shared that they didn't let hard work; naysayers; several years of detours and delays... stop them from making their dreams come true. They kept at and eventually made it happen. These types of stories motivate and inspire me, and I hope they do the same for you. Enjoy!
