It was just a matter of time before I found a way to feature Meryl Streep here.
Full disclosure: I am a HUGE fan of this actress — not only because she is unbelievably talented, but also because she is a classy human being who has conducted her career with integrity and intelligence.
There is a great tribute to her career and her choices in the San Francisco Chronicle this week. The starting point is an appreciation for her latest, surprising work in the film musical “Mamma Mia!”
The article rightly points out something we can all learn from Ms. Streep: Don’t be afraid to take risks. For example, after her amazing work in “The Devil Wears Prada,” she acted in a few well-intentioned duds last year, such as “Dark Matter” and “Rendition.” Nevertheless “Prada” and “Mamma Mia!” were also risks, and they paid off big-time.
She is a “Super Trouper” inspiration for us all.
