NEW YORK -- Caitlin Bassett plays a woman who jumps through time and space on NBC's"Quantum Leap," a fitting job for an actor who has lived many lives already.
"It gave experiences. It gave abilities. It gave discipline. It gave work ethic. It gave perspective. Like, at the end of the day, if no one's dying, we're having a good day," she says. In later episodes, he leaps into such predicaments as the cockpit of the space shuttle Atlantis in 1998, a boxing ring in Las Vegas in 1977 and into the body of a female bounty hunter in 1981. Bassett's character has been given the appropriate background of a former military intelligence officer.
"You literally are always having to learn what it's like to be someone else in their toughest moments, which often are their most defining and most formative in their lives," she says.
