Anna Deveare Smith gave opening remarks at the
National Peforming Arts Convention in Denver this past June

Writer and actor Anna Deavere Smith gives life to author Studs Terkel, convict Paulette Jenkins, a Korean shopkeeper and a bull rider, in this TED ("Technology, Enertainment, Design") conference video of excerpts from her solo show "On the Road: A Search for American Character".

 

NON-THEATRE ITEM:  The TED videos range from soporific to life-transforming.  Poke around a bit.  I personally loved Tony Robbin's unscripted counseling of Al Gore.
