<<<she received the Tony Award for best supporting actress for her role
as a black Jewish feminist in Wendy Wasserstein's play "An American
Daughter." Lynn Thigpen re-created the role in the 2000 TV movie version
of the play.>>>
A fabulous performance in a very under-rated Broadway play which is
getting a much deserved after-life in Regional Theater. The TV movie,
alas, was two hours with commercials, and the heart of Thigpen's role
was unfortunately cut out.
