Drawn from Playwright/Actor, Director/Producer & Author Daniel Beaty’s powerful, true journey from a childhood rife with poverty, incarceration, addiction, and rage to the successful adult life he has achieved, the award winning performer, writer, and motivational speaker presents the tools that readers need to overcome any obstacle and tap into their full capabilities. Beaty’s story-supported by deeply personal advice from notable mentors including Bill Crosby, Leontyne Price, Sydney Poitier, Ossie Davis, and Ruby Dee-serves as a poignant reminder that success is ultimately possible, not in spite of struggles but as a result of lessons learned and power drawn from those conflicts.
