overcome a great many obstacles in
the way of artistic recognition. His
father and mother died while he was

the lot of those mor fortunate.
He has been self-educated to a
great degree. He served for Is years

wrote Negro playlets, he played in
Harlem theatres. he entertained aud
fences between film shows. He play
ed bits on Broadway shows.
Then came his chance as under
study to Jules Bledsoe in the play,
"In Abraham's Bosom. He took
Bledsoe's part one night after an al
tercation between the player and the
management. then scored a hit.
Then came Porgy and with it, the
title role to Mr.. Wilson. He played
in many cities of the United States,
then went to London, where his sue
cess was repeated.
While in England, he played "Jim
Harris" in "AIl Gods Chilluns Got
Wings. again scoring a Lit.
Then back to the United States,
where he payed "Marius Harvey in
Sweet Chariot, a play written Of
the exploits Of Marcus Garvey. Next
came 'We, The People"
Now this player brings al his ex-
perience and perfected artistry into
part, written for him by Octavus
