Publisher's Summary
“In her long and extraordinary career, Cicely Tyson has not only exceeded as an actor, she has shaped the course of history.” (President Barack Obama, 2016 Presidential Medal of Honor ceremony)
"Just as I Am is my truth. It is me, plain and unvarnished, with the glitter and garland set aside. Here, I am indeed Cicely, the actress who has been blessed to grace the stage and screen 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 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.” (Cicely Tyson)

Blessed Assurance………,,
Even though she is no longer on this side of the Jordan, hearing Miss Tyson’s life told in her own voice made it richer. Thank you Miss Tyson. I wish I could have met you face to face but this book was the next best thing 💙

On hearing Miss Tyson’s story in her own voice was such a treasure! Her reflections on humanity and her positive action is simply magnificent
