Pfeiffer initially started turning down roles when she became a mom to Claudia and John with producer husband David E. Kelley.
“I just got pickier and pickier. It was hard to leave them, especially when they got to the school age,” Pfeiffer said and added, “Before that, I could just take them with me anywhere I went. My husband has a job that he can’t just up and go. So it was always a juggling act.”
