What role made you grow the most as an actor? Why?

McKay. I've never eaten so much in my life! ;-)
Failing that, I'd say Grant Janksy from my years on Traders. I had quit acting and was planning on being a full time nerd at the time. I was doing programming and working as a network engineer. The role came up while I was thinking about going freelance or starting up my own tech company. I really didn't want to audition at all. I didn't want to be an actor anymore. But Gayle, my agent, really wanted me in there so I ended up auditioning. It just came together beautifully. I came out of there thinking "I guess I've got a TV series" - it was that clear to me at the time that I'd got the role. Jansky was perfect for my frame of mind in those days. He was this brilliant and eccentric sociopath with a gift for computers and derivative trading...I was hooked. Those Traders years restored my interest in acting and the entertainment business as a whole. I learned that I really needed to have some kind of selection process for what I did. That acting can't just be about doing any job you get. I promised myself that I would never feel like I had to get a job. Money, Art or location, I ask myself that now before every project. Darklight and Python vs. Boa shot in Bulgaria and paid handsomely if you're wondering ;-)!
Also True Blood. It's good if you can over all the "Yehaawww" Southern accents.
