The Takeaway: Farai Chideya talks to Anna Deavere Smith

In the economic downturn, many of us are focusing on the economic bottom line. But there's another set of values in our life -- our passions, our creativity, our contributions to community. The Takeaway brings you a new multimedia series called "The Value" -- about what matters to us most. It is hosted by Farai Chideya and will feature interviews with people across all walks of life. In this episode, we sit down with Anna Deavere Smith, the award-winning actor, writer, and producer. Her new play "Let Me Down Easy" deals with death, dying, and the human spirit.
