Where do you like to go or do when<br />
you have a night off?<br />
My fiancé and I are usually very tired<br />
after work. If we go out, we tend to<br />
go to a local Jamaican restaurant in<br />
Brooklyn, then go to the park for a<br />
walk.<br />

Tell me about your fans.<br />
They are great. I was the only nonfamous<br />
person when the show started.<br />
Now I get letters from fans, a lot of<br />
them because I have shared about my<br />
eating disorder publicly, so they reach<br />
out to me to share their stories.<br />
What is your favorite charity or<br />
cause?<br />
Well, this is an easy one. I am all about<br />
women’s reproductive rights, so I work<br />
with a charity called AIsFor (aisfor.org),<br />
and it was started by Martha Plimpton<br />
and Kellie Overbey as a response to<br />
women’s reproductive rights being<br />
stripped away. It fights for clinics,<br />
Planned Parenthood. The A is for<br />
abortion, which I strongly believe is<br />
a woman’s right. I also like the Time’s<br />
Up movement, and I volunteer at the<br />
Veterans’ Hospital in New York.<br />
What project(s) do you have coming<br />
up?<br />
We wrap shooting “Claws” tomorrow,<br />
and I have a film coming out with<br />
Ethan Hawke called “Blaze.”<br />
Tell me a secret—a good one!<br />
I have never had a pair of sunglasses<br />
that I haven’t lost. Oh, years ago, my<br />
friend taught me how to score free<br />
umbrellas. You go to the theater. Once<br />
everyone leaves, there are a lot of<br />
umbrellas left behind.<br />
You can visit Lyon’s website jennlyon.<br />
net and watch “Claws” on TNT by<br />
checking your local listings.
