JULY PROFILE: BEAH RICHARDS

GEORGE EDWARD TAIT

     She was always here.  Beah Richards: face of the first world projecting a primordial presence as the mother of Being and the daughter of Time.  Each stage or screen appearance is an affirmation of art and a signature of spirit.  Richards has the poet’s tongue and the musician’s tone while a world of listening ears transfixes itself to the living theater in her theater of life.  Her voice vaults over verisimilitude into veracity as her delivery delegates drama into docudrama and documentation.  She is, ultimately, a vehicle of validation.  In her light, stars shine; from her beauty love breathes.

     From the microcosm of storefront theaters to the macrocosm of silver screens, Richards’ energy envelops a continuum of creativity and credibility.  Awards adorn her career like cosmic clusters of celestial bodies orbiting an alphabet of achievement.

     Although born July 12, 1926, Beah Richards was always here.  Now, at seventy, she remains ageless.  The        past is her producer, the future her understudy.  Her present is an image surpassing the speed of sight while remaining the vintage voice of visibility.  She directs herself.

     Beah Richards: was always here; will always be.  Happy Birthday!
