Cicely Tyson Memoir - Just as I am (PDF)

TITLE: JUST AS I AM 

AUTHOR: CICELY TYSON 

GENRE: BIOGRAPHY

Just as I Am is my truth. It is me, plain and unvarnished, with the glitter and garland set aside. In these pages, I am indeed Cicely, the actress who has been blessed to grace the stage for six decades.

 Yet I am also the church girl who once rarely spoke a word. I am the teenager who sought solace in the verses of the old hymn for which this book is named. 

I am a daughter and a mother, a sister and a friend. I am an observer of human nature and the dreamer of audacious dreams. 

I am a woman who has hurt as immeasurably as I have loved, a child of God divinely guided by his hand

 And here in my ninth decade, I am a woman who, at long last, has something meaningful to say.
