The 31-year-old actor says she knows she is a public figure who will sometimes receive bouquets and brickbats, reports Us Weekly.
"You don't have to feel bad for me because I have the most amazing life. I get to make art all day long. I get to express myself to an audience that cares so if there's going to be a segment of people who don't sort of connect with my belief system, then I'm just going to have accept that because I've made myself a public figure," says Dunham.
