From the editorial team at LinkedIn, I'm Jesse Hemphill and

this is Hello Monday, a show about the changing nature of work and how that work is

changing us. I first

started watching Laura Lenny when she played Mary Ann Singleton in Tales of the

City. It was a 1993 PBS miniseries based on the books.

Marianne was this young single woman who'd moved to San Francisco in the 70s,

and the show had straight, gay, bisexual, even transgender characters.

You know, it's hard to imagine now that LGBT people are on the screen all the time, but

that show was really different.

My dad is gay.

I am too. It was one of the first TV shows that I could kind of see my own life in.

Tales was Laura's big first TV break and her career took off from there.

She's won two Golden Globe Awards, four Emmys.

Her credits include The Truman Show, Love Actually,

You Can Count on Me, many others.

Earlier this year, she brought back tales of the city and we are all

waiting or at least I am for the next season of Ozark sometime next year.

Whatever you do for work chances are that you get some kind of feedback on it but when you work in the

public eye like Laura does that feedback becomes a whole industry cultural criticism.
