I read a jet magazine that my mom subscribes to and this week they did a profile article on an actress by the name of Taraji P. Henson. She has played in many movies and now will be nominated her great talent and hard work for an Oscar. In the article in explained how Henson started off doing little roles and short films and made her way to the top. She admitted for playing extra’s in films as well as in Television series. Just like other profile stories, the article succeeded because it gave great detail about her past and her future.
Henson talked about how she is a single parent raising her eleven year old son on her own with the help of her parents, when she’s working. Something that I noticed after reading the article that it was roughly short and could have been a little bit longer. Instead of focusing on her path and background they could have focused a little bit more on the films she played in a why she chosen to do those specific roles. Even though the article was fairly short it did have great details, it gave me the reader a since of who she is, where she came from and where she hopes to go.
