You Might Know Her From

You Might Know Her From Gilmore Girls, Better Call Saul, Prodigal Son, The First, Shameless, Hair Show, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, 13 Reasons Why, and Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life.

Keiko gave us all the scoop on playing Lane on Gilmore Girls, how she REALLY felt about where her character ended up, and if she thinks there's more story to tell in Stars Hollow. Plus, improvising with Mo'Nique and Taraji, shadowing Frances McDormand as she finessed Michael Bay, and transitioning to authority figure roles when you're so iconically a "teen" on screen. Keiko was so kind and warm and maybe made Anne and Damian think about improvisation in an ideally way? We loved it!
