Just As I Am by Cicely Tyson

Synopsis: The Life Story of a Celebrated Actress

Writing Style: Straightforward Commercial

Pacing: Moderate

Personal Highlights: First, I thank Cicely Tyson (resting in Heaven), for sharing her life experiences. Being a big fan of her starring role in the movies Sounder, Roots, and the Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman made the nuggets she shared about how those films came to be, a genuine treat. I also respected the historical vignettes shared about the film industry in general. Overall, Ms. Tyson's story depicts a true trailblazer who really enjoyed her life and work; indeed reflected on the big screen. Just marvelous!
