Broadway World
«Acting, mimicking, presenting, or narrating, Washington is always a figure to watch...with a fine actor's capacity for transformation and a born storyteller's knack for casting a magical haze over even the most everyday events.»
The Village Voice
«At its most affecting, it's a memoir of Ms. Washington's parents' perseverance and muted pain in a culture warped by racism.»
