Tyson graced the stage and screen for six decades. She had been the church girl who once rarely spoke a word; the teenager who sought solace in the verses of the old hymn for which this book is named.

The Academy, Tony, and Emmy Award-winning actor and trailblazer tells her story, looking back at her life and career.
