Book Reviews of Letters to a Young Artist: Straight-up Advice on Making a Life in the Arts-For Actors, Performers, Writers, and Artists of Every Kind
Book Review: Narcissistic
Summary: 2 Stars
Letters to a Young Artist is not worth reading. Anna Deavere Smith is a gifted artist herself, but her book springs from the assumption that she has profound wisdom to bestow. Her narcissism was disappointing because I have great respect for her as a performer.
