About the Author:
From AudioFile:
Sidney Poitier was the first black actor to win the Academy Award for best actor for his outstanding performance in Lilies of the Field in 1963. His landmark films include The Defiant Ones, A Patch of Blue, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, and To Sir, With Love. He has starred in over forty films, directed nine, and written four. He is the author of two autobiographies: This Life and the "Oprah's Book Club" pick and New York Times bestseller The Measure of a Man. Among many other accolades, Poitier has been awarded the Screen Actors Guild's highest honor, the Life Achievement Award, for an outstanding career and humanitarian accomplishment. He is married, has six daughters, four grandchildren, and one great-granddaughter.
Sidney Poitier, recently given a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Screen Actors Guild, is the only African-American actor ever to win an Oscar. The life experiences he explores frame his film career, fondly remembered by many. Poitier has crafted a memoir with articulate pride and self-reflection. His easy, conversational style makes it perfect for an audio experience. He conveys an elegance in speaking, yet maintains a likable storytelling ease. We learn of his early, reckless days in the Bahamas and his hard work in gaining success as an actor in the '50s and '60s. Poitier depicts incidents of discrimination and coercion that convey an insightful and approachable portrait of the times. Poitier's humanism is a consistent theme, and he's charismatic throughout. Frank McCourt captured hearts with Angela's Ashes; in much the same way Sidney Poitier shares his values and experiences in this brilliant audio program. R.F.W. Winner of AUDIOFILE Earphones Award.
