Biography.com Documentary on Billie Holiday

Artist:
Today has been a blow for all of us learning of the death of Bernie Mac. But in my grief, I take his memory to heart which is to continue to learn and to share with all. I used to watch his show, The Bernie Mac, show on television. I loved the lessons he shared with his families. He always adressed the viewing audience saying, "America..."
That is how I feel when I blog but it is not Hello, America but hello to the world or hello to what I am witnessing.
While trying to find a documentary on Bernie Mac, I ended up finding a wonderful documentary on Billie Holiday on biography.com
I am someone who only knew her music but I did not know all that I learned through this documentary. It is an excellent look at her tragic life. I honestly did not half the things I learned though I was aware of her drug abuse the other things I did not know.
Enjoy!

Thank you. I recently got to read a lot about her life and the waves of tragedy that flooded it. Never seen a documentary though, so this is much appreciated.
@anna - wow, so glad I could provide some visuals for your knowledge. I am now curious to read more about her. Thank you for blessing my little blog with your presence as always! 8)
