We saw her in late August 2011 at the Berkeley Rep where she presented Let Me Down Easy. The presentation was powerful and moving. We want to see more of her work. The house was packed and when it was over there was silence for a few moments before the applause began. She is amazing.

7:50- Mirror to her Mouth. One of the best put together monologues I've seen. Anna Deavere Smith is the embodiment of everyone of the charecters she inhabits. That one will stay with me.
