Tracie Thoms

Tracie Thoms is the sort of actor I instinctively trust the moment she appears on screen. A Howard University graduate who moves fluidly between Rent, The Devil Wears Prada, Death Proof, and 9-1-1, she has built a career on range rather than spectacle, and the fact that she sings only deepens her versatility. I have a soft spot for performers who anchor an ensemble instead of chasing solo stardom; they are the ones directors keep calling back. Her longevity at the front line of stage, film, and television strikes me as the surest proof of real, working talent. Reliable in the best sense.
