Ep. 16: Blair Underwood (Part II) – What Makes Blair, Blair?
Part II: Tori continues exploring the ancient adage “to thine own self be true” and other pearls of wisdom to live by with one of the greatest spirits ever. He seems to have mastered life, by mastering himself. As a father, husband, filmmaker, culture maker and prodigy, as well as an award-winning Hollywood and Broadway actor, he always remains grounded while effortlessly uplifting and inspiring those in his orbit by simply being himself. We’ve all seen him on LA Law, Sex and the City, Set It Off, and Netflix’s Self Made. Most recently, he was nominated for a 2021 Tony Award for Best Performance By An Actor In A Leading Role in Broadway's "A Soldier's Play," with the award show airing sometime this year. They explore the ancient adage “to thine own self be true” and other pearls of wisdom to live by, his definition of success, philosophy on love, his beloved mentors, and so much more! Here’s to one of Tori’s favorite spirits, Blair Underwood.
