Caitlin Bassett has a resume not always seen in Hollywood.
She spent seven years in the U.S. Army, attended law school and now she’s an actress.
Her acting journey began in law school when she felt the need to do something more creative. She attended an audition at a theater school, and the rest is history.
She now stars in NBC’s “Quantum Leap,” which she said was the perfect role for her experience.
“I remember thinking two things very specifically,” explained the actress. “One was that I think I’m very right for this, and two was they are never going to hire me for this role.”
“Quantum Leap” airs on Mondays at 10 p.m. on NBC.
This segment aired on the KTLA 5 Morning News on Jan. 30, 2023.
