The following signatures provided by the cast of the “Once and Again” TV Series provide us with an intimate glimpse into their personalities.
All of the signatures give evidence of true showmanship to various degrees in the following characters:
 |
Jeff Nordling A high measure of creativity is evidenced by the artistic way Jeff combines the “f” with “N” in one graceful sweep. Large lower loops indicate diversity of interests. The writing in general shows forcefulness and energy. As an actor, he will take direction and elaborate and run away with it in order to come of with his own interpretation and implementation of character. Overall impression is that of a high degree of creativity. |
 |
Sela Ward The handwriting reveals a strong stage/film presence and star quality. She cares deeply how her fans perceive her, and she often uses insight gained from past experiences when confronted with current decisions. She will give all of herself to the point of exhaustion. Limelight is a great reward in itself. |
 |
Meredith Deane A young lady with dynamite intellect. She is headstrong, able to analyze the character roles given to her and she has an individualistic way of interpretation. Certainly a memorable actress who also has some ambivalence toward her last name. A very strong personal/stage presence! |
 |
Billy Campbell Self assured and direct in his dealings. He has creative ways of defining roles and taking shortcuts. He does not put on airs in his personal life. He can be relied upon, both in his personal life as well as on the set. Loyalty and a good memory make him an asset. |
 |
Julia Whelan She is willing to sacrifice personal comforts to attain artistic success. A smart actress who thrives on attention. She feels good when her supporters are nearby. The presence of persistence, both in her work habits and the pursuit of artistic goals, will assure her continued success. |
 |
Shane West A rising star, always impatiently looking forward to the next big break. He shows self-assurance, does not like to waste time with trivialities, and nourishes his career with stubborn determination. He brings a strong business sense to the art of acting. |
 |
Evan Rachel Wood Diversity in creativity is seen in this signature. She is an accomplished actress who also has other talents. She pursues her career with single-minded determination. Simplification of lifestyle with economy of moves allow her to reach even difficult goals. She is quick to question and prompt in her decision making. |
Signatures are like the dress and makeup we show to the world. Character traits seen in a signature are the ones we want to project to others, the way we wish to be perceived. The true character of a writer is seen in the body of the handwriting itself, and not just in the signatures. However, sometimes, as in this instance, that is all we have available and there are still many things to be said about a person.
