I am very proud of my name. My full name is Richard Treat Williams.
And I fly planes all the time. And helicopters.
The day my son was born my life changed completely.
I think families find a dynamic that works for them.
My children are 10 and three, and the longing and the need for them is incredibly powerful.
I don't usually experience that because there are few people who intimidate me, but Woody was one of them.
Basically that was the moment when I thought I'd like to do this forever. I never changed my mind.
I'm a partner in a company called Helicopter Services and Instruction out of New Jersey.
It's exciting to do something like this because usually what happens in theater is that, after the first or second reading of a play, it falls apart completely and the rehearsal process is such that you begin to pick up the pieces and put it back together again.
The wonderful thing about Food for Thought is that it lets you keep your hand in theater and be in front of a live audience without a commitment of six months, or even three months.
Well, I've got two small children and this is a very important time for me to be around them.
Also, if you're in a TV show that does turn out to be very successful, you then can do whatever you want to do in theater for a very long time.
I couldn't imagine my life being any more successful than it is now.
I have a beautiful wife and two beautiful children, and every day I am paid to do what I love.
I define success as being comfortable with yourself and your life. And that is about as good as it gets, really.
Yes, I am a pilot. I am a flight instructor and a commercial pilot.
I just love working with actors in general.
Honestly, I didn't know I was a role model.
I don't think of myself as a role model.
But I like to be thought of as a good father and a good husband.
Sounds so silly, but I want to accomplish getting my kids through college.
This is the kind of work I've aspired to my whole career.
For the first time in a while, I must be honest, I really genuinely look forward to coming to work every day.

Most of us are flawed, complicated people, and we're all trying very hard to disguise that or hide it from the public. Ultimately, we respond to someone who's capable of doing heroic things but has issues or problems in their life that they can't seem to resolve. I believe audiences identify with that. All of us have those secrets and those things that we wish we could improve about ourselves. And when you have someone who's heroic and flawed, I think it makes us feel better about ourselves.Collection: Believe

All good dramas are rife with conflicts, and the conflicts have to be resolved. What I think is so great about a show that takes place in a hospital is that you have so many different people with different needs. Sometimes all those can be in conflict. The drama of Heartland also comes from the group of people waiting, and they are sometimes agonizingly waiting for a new organ for their body in order to survive. So the show is so much about survival, which creates a sense of urgency to get the organs. I think that sense of urgency is probably the most prominent dramatic quality to the show.Collection: Drama
