What Is My Passion Thursdays: Meet Dwight Henry




During my short trip to New Orleans, I had an opportunity to reintroduce myself to baker, businessman, and actor Dwight Henry.  I say reintroduce myself because I first met him at the 2013 Academy Awards (The Oscars) on the Red Carpet.  The first-time actor landed the starring role in "Beasts of the Southern Wild" which was nominated in four categories, including Best Picture.  I had the opportunity to interview him then (above) and now check out my recent interview (below) with Mr. Henry as he discusses life after the Oscars; his new bakery "Wink's"; and what he loves more than anything in the world!!




Have you seen the movie "Beasts of the Southern Wild"?  Have you visited Mr. Henry's Bakery in New Orleans?
