Tina Fey Speaks Out About the Writer's Strike, Being a Mom and Having a Hit Show

Tina Fey is best known for her role in both writing and acting in Saturday Night Live on NBC. For years she took the role of a week-end news anchor. She's written several movies in which costars from SNL also starred in such as 2004's "Mean Girls." The movie gained popularity and launched Lindsay Lohan's career into superstardom. Now with her own show "30 Rock," Fey is climbing the entertainment latter, winning both millions of fans and awards alike.

"It's great to work so hard on something and be recognized for it," says the Emmy winning producer.

"'30 Rock' didn't really get off to a strong start. It was enough to keep it on the air, but over time it grew on people into the second season."

Fey has won both an Emmy Award and a Golden Globe for taking part in the show. Not only does she act and write, she produces now as well.

"I don't think you should limit yourself. The sky is the limit. Your dreams and goals are only as big as you make them," Fey says with enthusiasm.

"It literally is a full time job juggling all three positions. People don't realize the hard work that goes into each and every show, trying to make it appealing to our viewers, taping, writing the next episode."

"Aside my job, I'm a full-time mommy too," she excitedly expresses.

"It's also my other full-time job. I'm always on the go. It's hard at times. But that's life. Work and family. I'm lucky enough to have a good career and provide for my daughter Alice," she says.

However, in the entertainment world, big executives put pressure on their clients. Sometimes those clients may feel unfairly treated and go on strike, as we found with the most recent writer's strike.

"We work so hard on our projects. When you're not being recognized for your hard work that is making companies millions of dollars it can be frustrating for some," she says of the writer's strike that recently ended.

"Not only do the strikes affect the writer's lives, it affects the actors, the producers, the crew who control sound and lighting. It also affects people at home."
