The Boxer Briefings

The only thing that people really, really want is a pair of eyes to look into or ears to listen to them. They want to feel secure in them, to feel safe, unjudged, and loved for their worst and their best, but loved sincerely. When a person finds those eyes, they do all that they can to keep their attention. I hope to find in you, "the eyes and ears", a resting place for my point of view.

From Senator Obama

After 5 Before 9 Production Company
The Tragedy of Any1Man
c/o Kristen Jarvis
BY HAND

Dear George, Brandon, and Benny:

This is just a quick note to congratulate you on the opening of "The Tragedy of Any1Man" in Philadelphia. Black Men face a unique set of challenges in America today. You are engaging difficult issues head-on, and I commend you for that.

One-person performances are among the most difficult for writers, drirectors, and of course, the actor. I can't claim to be a thespian, but I know what it's like to stand up alone before a roomful of people. It isn't easy for me--and I often get a Tele-Promp-Ter.

Kristen tells me George and Brandon have done a great job writing the show, and that Benny has really brought it all together. When the curtain opens, George, break a leg.

Sincerely,
Barack Obama
