My Take

Dana Ivey is one of those actors where you just feel the weight of genuine stage craft the moment she opens her mouth — a born theater person who made Broadway her home without ever losing sight of what makes a performance breathe. The fact that she originated the title role in Driving Miss Daisy is remarkable on its own, but then she went and won the Drama Desk Award in 1997, which tells you this wasn't a one-era wonder. She's that rare Atlanta-born talent who brought a distinct Southern intelligence to every role, whether on stage, screen, or television, without ever leaning on the accent as a crutch. I find myself wishing more people knew her name the way they should.
