This Girl Grew up in Poverty with 5 Siblings, Surrounded by Rats & Without Electricity – Today, She’s a Famous TV Star

Born 59 years ago in a one-room shack on her grandmother’s South Carolina farm, she grew up in poverty, later moving with her family to a condemned home in Rhode Island. Her childhood was marked by hunger, harsh winters, and nights plagued by rats. Food insecurity forced her and her siblings to scavenge or steal to survive. Despite these struggles, she clung to education and creativity as her lifelines.

Her passion for performing began in childhood talent shows, and academic excellence led her to programs like Upward Bound. Winning a scholarship to Rhode Island College and later earning a coveted spot at Juilliard, she honed her craft. At 29, she received her first Tony nomination for Seven Guitars, launching a celebrated career. She gained critical acclaim with Oscar nominations for Doubt (2008) and The Help (2011) and made history in 2015 as the first Black woman to win an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series. In 2017, she won an Oscar for Fences.

Drawing from her experiences, she advocates against childhood hunger, raising millions through the Hunger Is campaign. Married to Julius Tennon, she reflects on her journey with gratitude, inspiring others with her resilience and compassion.
