Drew Barrymore is on the floor. It’s a weekday afternoon in her Manhattan apartment, and the Emmy-winning actress, producer, writer and entrepreneur—who is also Adweek’s Creator Visionary of the Year—has eschewed her sofas in favor of the carpet.

For fans of The Drew Barrymore Show, this is a familiar habit. Throughout the syndicated show’s three-season run (distributor CBS Media Ventures has already re-upped for Season 4) Barrymore has sat, lain and even rolled on the floor during exchanges with George Clooney, Eddie Murphy and Hillary and Chelsea Clinton, among others.
