Popular as a person and an artist
Amanda Tapping is a person who appeals to a wide variety of people. Not only is she very popular with her numerous fans, but the lively, blonde artist from Canada is also highly valued among her colleagues. Here are a few opinions from her "Stargate" colleagues:
"I am so grateful to know you and call you my friend. You remain in a class of your own and are truly one of the greats. A brilliant actress, a humble TALENTED artist. A leading lady who inspires everyone around her and who is so passionate about sisterhood and supporting her peers and people. You are quite simply the real deal. A star!!"
"...I don't have any specific stories. She's just always... she has this ability to relate to people... she's just incredible! She has a strength and a likable quality that comes with that kind of light. I can't get over her and I'm so happy to see her directing. I think we need more women like Amanda directing. Because they get it, they've been there, because they know more than anyone else!"
"I'm a fan of Amanda Tapping. In fact, I'm a HUGE fan of Amanda Tapping. And I'm not the only one. No, I'm not talking about all those Samantha Carter devotees out there. I'm talking about pretty much everyone who has had the pleasure of working with Amanda over the years. She is immensely talented, unfailingly professional, and just plain lovely."
"Amanda; the myth that was created for Doris Day, that's Amanda. She's warm, the camera loves her, and she can take a scene that really should never be released and make it sound like a diamond!"
"Amanda is so supportive and so warm. She is such a positive influence on set. She knows everyone's name. Always prepared. Always supportive. Always helping. Always giving. ... She is a great actress and a great person."
Amanda, I thank God you were on this show! You are one of the smartest women I have ever met. Amazingly smart and savvyy and... er... pretty...
"Amanda is a truly amazing actress and she brings that to every scene she's in!"
Thank you, Amanda, for the autographs
In 2022 I got the first autograph from Amanda. My daughter got it for me and I was very impressed about this curtesy. The second autograph was then signed for me by Amanda personally at FedCon 2023. To be honest, this autograph is a highlight in my little Stargate collection.
