BOOK TITLE: FINDING ME AUTHOR: VIOLA DAVIS AVAILABLE AT: MAJOR BOOKSTORES

Davis is the first African-American actress to win an Oscar, an Emmy and a Tony award for her acting. Davis has challenged the narrative of success in Hollywood: She is female, black and ordinary looking, yet also blessed with an admirable aura and impressive talent.

She is a reflection of how hard work can sustain any career and lead to long-term success.

In this raw and honest memoir she share about growing up in poverty and dealing with racial segregation.

Hers is a beautiful coming of age story of how she learnt to accept herself and use her talents to make a difference in her life, finding her voice, and fully claiming her life.

Davis is not just a gifted performer but also an irrepressible survivor of abuse and poverty who defied labels and stereotypes to shatter expectations and excel beyond limitations placed before her. Her well-written ‘grass to grace’ story will inspire you to light up your own life with creative expression, and rediscover who you were before the world put a label on you and who you want to be.
