The expression “You’ve come a long way,
baby,” perhaps refers to no one as much as it does to Halle Berry. Meet the renowned actress, movie producer, model, wife and stepmother. Oh yes, add history maker to that substantial list of roles. In March of 2002, Halle Berry became the first African American woman to win the Academy Award for Best Actress, an award that had eluded talented Black women for 73 years.
Her Oscar win was televised before hundreds of millions of people in more than 100 countries, making her almost immediately an American icon. The publicity surrounding the nomination and the win was dizzying. If people didn’t know who Halle Berry was before, they have been doing double takes at the actress ever since.
“Red Hot Halle: The Story of an American Best Actress” is extensively researched and delightfully told by Kelly Kenyatta. Through interviews with Halle's first "puppy love," high school classmates, colleagues, associates and intimate friends to Halle's own accounts, the life of this fascinating and oftentimes controversial actress is richly depicted.
