ITV News published this video item, entitled “Launching his new book, Sir Lenny Henry talks success, racism and diversity in the arts | ITV News” – below is their description.
These days Sir Lenny Henry, a national treasure, is basking in well deserved appreciation for his comedy, his acting, his charity work, his push for diversity in the arts and more recently his writing.
But it hasn’t always been like that as he reveals in his latest book.
Racism has blighted his career – especially in the early days.
He spoke to us about that, about what he learned from his marriage to Dawn French. Oh, And how he considers wearing socks important.
