Actor and occasional stand-in Mike Larose passed along an excellent interview with Liz Forde, an actor and musician who also stands in for Anna Paquin on the television series True Blood.
In the interview, Liz talks about the challenges of working very intimately with other stand-ins, working overnights, as well as how difficult it can be simply explaining her job to others.
I highly recommend the interview, which appears on the website Top5.com.
