Memories from the Set: Bradley Whitford on "The West Wing"


White House staffer Josh Lyman remains Whitford's best-known role, and the Aaron Sorkin political drama remains one of his favorite jobs.

"I was at the White House Correspondents Dinner, and this young guy came up to me and he goes, 'Hey man, I just want you to know that West Wing's what got me into politics. I'm a staffer on the Hill.' I said, 'Oh wow, that's great.' He said, 'Actually, you know what?'" Whitford says, laughing.

"'I'm really tired, I don't make any money, and I'm never going to kiss Mary-Louise Parker.'"





Two more memories Whitford recalls quite clearly:

"I remember when we all stopped shooting and watched some stuff when the Iraq war started," he says.



Whitford also remembers some fun behind the scenes of the Season 2 episode, 'Noel'.

"Yo-Yo Ma was in it, and it was an amazing day," he says. "One of my favorite memories is Yo-Yo Ma playing cello while Dulé Hill tap-danced."
