In these last 10 years, stage and screen veteran Peter Friedman has enjoyed a steady flow of work, more than the first 30 years of his career. Recently, he got raves for his Polonius in Sam Gold’s production of “Hamlet” at the Public Theater, had a recurring role on the Hulu series “The Path,” and now plays Frank Vernon on the hit HBO show “Succession.” On this episode, he talks about how being the “new kid in class” as a day-player on set makes him nervous, why it’s ok to dismiss work that doesn’t speak to you, how performing with The Muppets messed with his acting training, and much more!
