Lorraine Toussaint Children Quotations

I grew up under the British system, which I think is horrific for children - very, very strict - a system that did not recognize children as being individuals. You were small animals earning the right to be human.

Initially I started in theatre as a Shakespearean actress before film and television. I've always been an artistic child growing up and I knew I wanted to act for as long as I can remember.

I grew up a middle class, colonized child of teachers and librarians and people, women especially, who treasured education.
