Arts
My guest today is one of the most dynamic young people I’ve gotten to know, Ms. Lyric Ross. Now unless you don’t watch TV, I’m sure you’ve heard of my guest’s hit show on NBC This is Us. She plays Deja, a young girl who got caught up in the foster system due to a well meaning but none the less negligent mother (played by yours truly) and ends up in the care of Randall Pearson and his amazing family. Lyric’s performance has garnered her a Teen Choice award and most recently a Screen actors guild award nomination for outstanding performance by an ensemble. I mean, this girl is the embodiment of pure talent. I’m so glad I got to sit down and talk about her journey being a young artist in this sometimes demanding and uncompromising business.
