The HBO comedy, on which Inbar Lavi played an employee at The Pleasure Chest, came at the “roughest time in Los Angeles” for the actress.

“I was working maybe four different jobs just to make ends meet,” she says. “I was really broke. I could barely pay rent. I didn’t have a car. I was riding my bike from one job to another and then to audition in between.”



The actress knew she had to make a change, and so she did.

“This is going to sound so superficial, but I walked into that audition with my curly hair — the first time I had my curls out — and that was it, I booked it, and I was able to breathe again. The show is focused on the business, so a lot of the industry was watching it. It made a difference.”



And once she got on set, “Kevin Dillon was incredibly funny and sweet and welcoming. The director was wonderful. The whole set, it was such a great experience. I learned a lot from that.”
