Inside, Lynn, who’s starring in the new OWN show “Greenleaf,” shares her views on her distinguished career, new TV show on OWN and diversity issues in Hollywood.
Touching on diversity in Hollywood, she said, “I am more concerned about them giving our work distribution, about it being seen by people, and I think that is more important that we continue to be prolific in our cinematic expressions.”
