Winner of the 2023 Grammy for Best Audio Book, Narration, and Storytelling Recording!
Audie Award Winner for Audiobook of the Year!
Narrated by Viola Davis
In my book, you will meet a little girl named Viola who ran from her past until she made a life-changing decision to stop running forever.
This is my story, from a crumbling apartment in Central Falls, Rhode Island, to the stage in New York City, and beyond. This is the path I took to finding my purpose but also my voice in a world that didn’t always see me.
As I wrote Finding Me, my eyes were open to the truth of how our stories are often not given close examination. We are forced to reinvent them to fit into a crazy, competitive, judgmental world. So I wrote this for anyone running through life untethered, desperate and clawing their way through murky memories, trying to get to some form of self-love. For anyone who needs reminding that a life worth living can only be born from radical honesty and the courage to shed facades and be . . . you.
Finding Me is a deep reflection, a promise, and a love letter of sorts to self. My hope is that my story will inspire you to light up your own life with creative expression and rediscover who you were before the world put a label on you.

Viola Davis narra su historia de una forma increíble. Escucharla fue un viaje a mi propia vida y entenderla fue entenderme a mi misma. Este libro será un favorito de ahora en adelante

I knew Viola Davis had a hard life, but I had NO IDEA it was like THAT! What she shared in this book har me teary-eyed with every single chapter. There are so many devastating stories, and yet, so much hope, love and compassion around it. The Davis family survived and Viola became this FABULOUS actress that I admire.It's one of the hardest and most extraordinary life stories I have heard. It easily became a part of my Top 3 with the books by Sally Field and Matthew Perry. It just moves you, the story is so difficult, compelling, painful and almost unbelievable. Viola went through a time where racism was everywhere, and she had awful experiences with it, something that only strong souls are able to survive.And I just couldn't settle with just the book, I HAD to hear the Grammy winning audiobook, narrated by the author. If you think the book is fabulous, the narration is EXTRAORDINARY. Viola is a fabulous performer, and she proves that once again with this.
