Annette Bening Earns 2019 Tony Nomination
I am happy
but not a bit surprised to read of Annette Bening’s
recent Tony nomination for her performance in Arthur Miller’s play “All My
Sons.” Right before her first Oscar nomination for The Grifters and during my tenure
as San Diego Mesa's Dean of Humanities, former student Bening returned to
receive a Humanities Award. She also conducted a workshop for drama students.
Her enthusiasm for acting delighted everyone!
"My goal is to become an old woman playing all sorts of character parts," she told the students.
Expressing a desire to do Hamlet, Bening reminded the group that Dame Judith Anderson successfully portrayed that traditionally male leading role many years ago.
As an avid Bening fan, I hope her wish comes true. And I’m sending her extra-special good vibes for a Tony win.
CBS will broadcast the 73rd Annual Tony Awards, hosted by James Corden, on June 9.
