<<<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. http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com
