Bonnie Hunt was an oncology nurse at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago before she hit it big, and the experience has obviously stuck with her. "I was a nurse in my heart from the time I was a little girl and I was fortunate enough to have parents who steered me in that direction," she told NurseZone.com. "But I also always loved the art of storytelling, whether it be through acting, writing, directing or just listening to patients tell me their life stories."
