Show Notes
Loretta Devine’s voice and performances are nothing short of iconic. From being one of the original Dreamgirls on Broadway to Waiting to Exhale, The Preacher’s Wife, Grey’s Anatomy, and The Carmichael Show, Loretta’s career has spanned stage, film, and television with a rare mix of power, humor, and grace. In this conversation, Lena shines a light on Loretta’s triumphs and heartbreaks – from the grueling years of Broadway that prepared her for Hollywood, to the sting of being overlooked, to the joy of working hard and getting it right. Loretta also reflects on what it means to be a great actress and how to keep evolving in an industry that often tells women they’re done.
