Uzo Aduba: Seeing Yourself and Being Seen

Three time Emmy award-winning actress Uzo Aduba blesses us with her presence on this week’s episode, and her energy and light are infectious! From portraying the legendary Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren in Orange is the New Black to the iconic Shirley Chisholm in Mrs. America to her leading role as Dr. Brooke Taylor in new series In Treatment, we can always count on Uzo to deliver! We talked about being first generation and learning to be proud of her African roots, working through grief and the time she almost quit acting for good. The only thing stronger than Uzo’s chops is our standom!
