Sidney Poitier: An Actor Remembers
Date: 6:00 pm, Monday February 22, 2010
Cost: Free!
Legendary actor Sidney Poitier returns to reflect on his life--this time to dig deeper into the moral and spiritual dimensions that have given it meaning. He writes about values and ideals, love, education, family and work. Measure of A Man, A Spiritual Autobiography is rich in stories and in hard-earned wisdom. The book draws on the two halves of Mr. Poitier's unique perspective: his impoverished but, in many ways, blissful upbringing on an island in the Bahamas, and his long career making some of the most morally significant films of the late 20th Century.
