Adepero Oduye — American Actress

Adepero Oduye is an American actress... (wikipedia)

At the end of the day, if I can say that I had a career where I was able to play all different kinds of characters and I'm known as someone who is well-respected for my approach to the craft, that would be a beautiful life.
There are conservative people in all colours in America.
My intention is to do more films.
My mother's a pretty warm, open person.
The reason why I found acting is because my father passed away. He passed away really young. I was going to go to med school. My father's dream was that all of his kids become doctors. I realized in school I didn't like it. When he died, it was like a wake-up call. Life is too short to do something you don't want to do.
