Emilio Madrid

So was there a point where you weren't speaking about your condition when it came to your career? Yeah, definitely.

Um, I think until I moved to New York because right before going to New York, Gloria and Emilio had me come to Miami, come to Miami, go to Miami.

Right before going to New York, let me start over.

Right before moving to New York, Gloria and Emilio had me go to Miami and go to dinner and just kind of get to know me a little bit before I... played her.

And we have this dinner at one of their restaurants on Miami Beach, I will never forget this night.

And, you know, we're drinking, it's all kind of normal.

I needed to do that.

I needed to show up somewhere as Anna Villafane being... honest about physically where I was at that moment.
