I’ve been such a fan of Sarah Paulson for years! It’s amazing to see how consistently she’s worked with Ryan Murphy – starting with her incredible role as Billie Dean Howard in the very first season of American Horror Story, she’s been a fixture on the show for nine seasons now. And her work on American Crime Story was just phenomenal; she absolutely deserved that Emmy for playing Marcia Clark.
