Anne Dudek Looks Back on "Six Feet Under"

Before she landed the part of Allison Williman, aka the first woman Nate slept with after Lisa went missing, Dudek had to get through the chemistry test with Peter Krause.

Did we mention that Kathy Bates was directing the episode? “It was one of those, ‘I can’t believe I’m in the room with these people’ moments,” Dudek recalls. “My hands were shaking, and I thought, ‘It’s better if I just forget the words than have them watch my script go up and down, shaking so hard because I was scared.”

As you know, Dudek nailed it, and being involved in the prestige drama led to other parts of similar caliber. “It felt like one of the best things I’d had in my career up to that point, just getting that part.”
