维奥拉·戴维斯,三重奏成就者
When internationally-acclaimed actress Viola Davis gains her star on the 好莱坞星光大道 1月. 5, two special people will be among the many around the world cheering her on: Her older sister, Deloris格兰特, and the sisters' earliest acting coach, 罗恩·斯泰森毡帽.The Federal 向上的束缚 program links all three.
As teenagers, Deloris and Viola in 1979 enrolled together in the six-week intensive 向上的束缚 program at Rhode Island College. They did so during the one and only summer that Stetson worked in the college prep, student success program for those who are low-income or "first generation," meaning their parents did not obtain a college degree.
The job was "manna from heaven," 罗恩 recalled during an interview in late December. 为什么? Besides allowing him to expose teenagers to the serious pursuit of theater, 很多都是第一次, 他开玩笑说, “我不得不给我的车加油."
罗恩, who has worked in theater for decades and who is a senior member of the acting staff at New York's Neighborhood Playhouse, admired Viola long before she had garnered two Academy Award nominations (for the movies "Doubt" and "The Help,") and decades before she won an Emmy (for her lead role in "How to Get Away With Murder"). He recalls a driven 14-year-old who was undaunted by his tough-love approach to teaching drama. Humble about the role he played in her life, 罗恩表示, "I can't stress this enough: This is Viola's story, 不是我的."
罗恩 asked his students to raise their hands if they wanted to become an actor. 所有的人都举手了. As he emphasized the difficulty of an acting career, 高失业率, the rarity of career opportunity, 更别说成功了, more and more hands came down until Viola's was the only one left.
“我喜欢她。”罗恩回忆道. "I know myself well enough that I brought a lot of ego into that room. But she was a very determined kid. I mean, Viola was 14 years old! But she didn't back down; as Viola herself told the New Yorker, she was reaching for the ceiling."
She remembers growing up poor in a family of one brother and five sisters. Yet the 向上的束缚 program was a bright spot for the whole family. When asked if she was enrolled in the student success program, she laughed and said, "Are you 在跟我开玩笑? 第一年, I went to some classes with [older sisters] Diane and Anita," who were also enrolled in 向上的束缚 - at that time, 最小的妹妹, 丹尼尔, 还太小不能参加吗. (Ultimately, the five Davis sisters all obtained college degrees.)
Deloris said spending six summer weeks at Rhode Island College in classes with Viola drew the sisters closer together and was a galvanizing experience. "Our lives became intertwined,德洛丽丝说. "Having six weeks away from home, developing my own sense of self, 做戏剧, 上课, 就像一个, 巨大的礼物."
然而,这个家庭却举步维艰. When there was no food in the house, Deloris, Viola and their siblings sometimes would look through garbage for something to eat. 戏剧提供了一种逃避, although the experience of going to bed hungry was something that neither of them would ever forget -- one reason why Viola is now the ambassador for 饥饿是, an effort that aims to end childhood hunger in America.
Despite poverty at home, the girls' educational life blossomed. Between 向上的束缚 classes every Saturday and attending high school, they were in school six days a week. "The teachers in 向上的束缚 were some of the best teachers I ever had. They were brilliant and compassionate. They treated me like I was such an intellectual, and I wasn't used to that. Previous to that experience I felt that others treated me differently because I was a black female,德洛丽丝说. "罗恩's classes liberated me as an artist. I realized, you know what, maybe I really am 重要的. Maybe I really can do something great someday."
The 向上的束缚 experience made such an impact on Deloris and Viola that they decided they wanted to start a scholarship fund for 向上的束缚 students as soon as they graduated from Rhode Island College. 启动基金, she and Viola put on a one-woman show at the college in 1988, 筹集200到300美元. The beginnings were humble, but they were the start of something much bigger. 从那时起, 他们创立的基金, Rhode Island College's 向上的束缚 Scholarship Endowment Fund, has provided tens of thousands of dollars to help dozens of 向上的束缚 students pay for college tuition and books. After Viola was nominated for an Academy Award in 2012 for "The Help," fellow movie actress Meryl Streep, with whom Viola co-starred in "Doubt,捐了10美元,向该基金捐款000英镑.
"Viola is always asking me, 'are any of the kids hungry? 他们需要食物吗??' She has given so much to the students at my high school. People have no idea,德洛丽丝说.
Deloris will be on the Hollywood sidewalk beside Viola as her sister's terrazzo and brass star is imbedded in cement to shine through the ages along with the leading lights of film.
至于罗恩, he remains humbled and a little amazed at the role he played in sparking interest in a 14-year-old 向上的束缚 student who has become one of the world's leading actresses. "The arts empower people," he said. "Somewhere along the line, someone said 'Yes,' to Viola."
《bet8九州登录入口》也是如此.
