Default Left indent

I'm sure there's a simple answer, but just can't figure it out. Can some tell me how to do a left indent as shown below? I don't want any text under the name Jane. I'd like it to line up with the first word on first line as illustrated below.

Sample:

JANE: How are you today? I would like to know if you're having a good day.
Things are going well here.

The jargon term for this is "hanging indent."
