Request SpeakerSpeaker Bio
Viola Davis is a prime example of how hard work and determination can lead to success. Despite facing many challenges in her life, she has emerged as one of the most successful actresses in Hollywood.
Viola Davis is an American actress and producer. She has been nominated for four Academy Awards, three Tony Awards, and two Emmy Awards. She has also won a Golden Globe Award and a Screen Actors Guild Award. Viola is considered one of the greatest actresses of her generation.
Viola was born in St. Matthews, South Carolina, on August 11, 1965. Her mother worked as a maid and her father was a farmer. Viola’s parents divorced when she was just two years old. She and her sisters were raised by their single mother in Central Falls, Rhode Island. Viola has said that growing up poor was “the best thing that ever happened” to her because it made her appreciate everything she has now.
Viola faced many challenges growing up. She was sexually abused by a family member from the age of eight until she was twelve. This had a profound effect on her and took a long time to overcome. In addition to this, Viola struggled with anxiety and depression for many years. It wasn’t until she started acting that she began to feel better about herself. Acting gave her a sense of purpose and helped her to heal emotionally.
Viola’s first big break came in the form of a role on the TV show “City of Angels.” She went on to star in several movies, including “Doubt,” “The Help,” and “Fences.” Viola has said that her experience with sexual abuse made it difficult for her to audition for roles early in her career. She was afraid of being judged and didn’t want to relive her trauma. However, she eventually overcame this fear and gave some amazing performances.
Some of Viola’s most notable achievements include winning an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role in “Fences” and becoming the first black actress to win an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her role in “How to Get Away with Murder.” She has also been nominated for four Tony Awards, three Golden Globe Awards, and two Emmy Awards. In addition to this, Viola wrote a book titled “Finding Me” in which she discusses her journey to self-acceptance.
Viola made many jaws drop when she became the first black woman to receive the Triple Crown of Acting. Before her, only fourteen other actors had achieved this. This just goes to show that Viola Davis is a force to be reckoned with. In addition to being the first black woman to receive the Triple Crown of Acting, she is also the youngest winner of this award.
Viola Davis is an inspiration to many because she has overcome so much in her life. Despite being faced with difficult challenges, she has gone on to have a successful career in Hollywood. She is a prime example of how hard work and determination can lead to success. In addition to this, Viola is also a strong advocate for women’s rights and equality. She has said that she wants to use her platform to “change the world for women”, which she has managed to do quite well.
