Kristin Chenoweth is a show business rarity — a Broadway icon and LGBTQ advocate who's also a devoted Christian. "Being a person of faith and saying it in this industry, I always felt like I was being judged. Why was I being judged? It's a huge part of the journey so far," she told me on "Salon Talks."
The actor, singer and author is best known for originating the character Glinda in the iconic musical "Wicked," and multiple screen successes in "Pushing Daisies," "Glee," "Schmigadoon!" and other indelible roles. In her new book, "I'm No Philosopher, But I Got Thoughts: Mini Meditations for Saints, Sinners, and the Rest of Us," Chenoweth explores the complicated, seemingly contradictory sides of her life from starting out as a Oklahoma girl who just wanted to sing, dance and act to a now Tony, Drama Desk, and Emmy winner with many stories to tell.
