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.
Close your eyes for a moment and try to imagine esteemed actor, writer, director, and humanitarian Sidney Poitier shopping at The Gap and Old Navy! This is but one of many funny, heartwarming, and deeply inspirational adventures to be found in Poitier's latest work, dedicated to his great- granddaughter in the hope of letting her know exactly who her great-grandfather was, what he believed, and what made him tick. His letters to her are compelling, as is his narration. Sidney Poitier has a voice as melodious as a Caribbean breeze. There is no mistaking the dynamics and energy he asserts as he moves effortlessly from letter to letter. Like his acting, his narration is unfailingly professional, warm, and highly interesting, and makes for a triumphant audio presentation from beginning to end.
