The Golden Globe winner got together with Willie Geist in the New York City apartment building she grew up in to discuss her Broadway debut in the Tony-nominated show Every Brilliant Thing and the new season of the Roku show Solo Traveling with Tracee Ellis Ross and why she always follows the Mantra “B.I.A” or Bring It All when she packs.
