Title: The Measure Of A Man: A Spiritual Autobiography
Product review: By Sidney Poitier (HarperCollins Publishers, 2000)At age 72, Sidney Poitier completed this autobiography in 2000. It began as an exercise in self-questioning, an exploration of his life. As he looked back on his long and celebrated life, he wanted to understand how well he had done at measuring up to the values he placed on himself and the standards he had set. As he reflected on his simple life growing up in the Bahamas, one of the most memorable of all of the teachings of his father was the one about the measure of a man, which you will enjoy discovering within the pages of this book. If you are not already a fan of Sidney Poitier, you will be after delighting yourself in his memoir. He has written about his life honestly and openly and the reader will truly come to understand the man behind the first African American actor to win the 1963 Academy Awards for Best Actor in Lilies of the Field.
