Program Description

Event Details

This month's discussion is The Measure of a Man: A spiritual Autobiography by Sidney Poitier. Here is Poitier's own introspective look at what has informed his performances and his life. Poitier explores the nature of sacrifice and commitment, price and humility, rage and forgiveness, and paying the price for artistic integrity. What emerges is a picture of a man in the face of limits—his own and the world's.

Stop by the library on Governor Dr. to pick up a copy.
