I couldn’t wait to release the extended interview from the beautiful and genuine Essence Atkins. Her interview was absolutely amazing, she was so honest and sincere with her advice and sharing her experience in the entertainment industry, I couldn’t have asked for a better person to include in “Black Actress”. Essence was an actress that  I grew up admiring, I was obsessed with her on both “Smart Guy” and “Half and Half”  and I’m so glad that she was just as amazing in real life. Thank you, Essence for being apart of “Black Actress” and please enjoy her full length interview below!
