Davis first won a Tony in 2001 for her role inin 2015 and an Oscar for, she joins fellow EGOT winners Audrey Hepburn, Rita Moreno and more. “Oh, my god. I wrote this book to honor the six-year-old Viola. To honor her, her life, her joy, her trauma, everything. It has just been such a journey,” Davis said in her acceptance speech. “I just EGOT!”
She's a talent. Her Michelle Obama affectations were so on, I now see Michelle O. as playing Viola Davis, after watching First Lady... Which was great btw.
