Often referred to as one of the best “character” actors around, Bill Camp memorably appears—or often disappears—into countless supporting roles, and can be counted on to give a truthful, compelling performance each time. His “In the Envelope” interview sheds light on how to do so, from heightening material onstage or onscreen to harnessing the power of imagination and sense memory. “I’m recalling from memories all the time,” Bill says of his character work. “I am content.”

Raised in Massachusetts and eventually trained at regional theaters and the Juilliard School, Bill has worked for years on New York City stages, garnering an Obie Award for “Homebody/Kabul” and Tony nomination for #TheCrucible. Within the last decade, he’s built a prolific body of screen work, including on series “Manhattan,” “The Leftovers,” “The Looming Tower,” and an Emmy nod for “The Night Of,” as well as films “Lincoln,” “12 Years a Slave,” “Birdman,” “Love & Mercy,” “Jason Bourne,” “Molly’s Game,” “Wildlife,” “Vice,” “Joker,” “News of the World,” and the upcoming “Passing.” He is now SAG Award–nominated for his work as Mr. Scheibel on #Netflix's hit limited series #TheQueensGambit. This episode is brought to you by HBO.
