Dear Ms. Henson,

My name is Matt Winick and I’m a fan of your acting. My favorite tv show that you played in was The Division.  The Divison was a great tv show about  a team of women police officers who investigate crimes in San Francisco. In the show I liked about how the woman in the police department work hard to balance their worklife with their personal lives and find ways to work with men in the police force.  You did an excellent job portraying as Inspector/Officer Rania Washington because I liked on how you made her have unique traits like  working with other detectives including inspectors on solving cases including reviewing evidence and being very committed to work on moving up from police officer to inspector.  In  January 2016, I went to the movie theaters and saw Hidden Figures. Hidden Figures was a great biopic movie about Katherine Goble Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson who are African Americans where they are mathematicians who work for NASA. The movie was great because it did an excellent job symbolizing the need to end racism, how women should be treated, and the need for Civil Rights.  Ms. Henson, I thought you did an excellent job portraying as Ms. Katherine Goble Johnson because I liked on how you made her have great traits like working hard to overcome her struggles in dealing with racism including being discriminated by her peers,  willing to work hard to use her math resources to help John Glen orbit safe in space, and many others.   You, Ms. Octavia Spencer, and Ms. Janelle Monae really did a great job making Hidden Figures a great movie.

   

Ms. Henson, I have autism with a learning disability. Having a disability is hard for me because I have trouble comprehending on learning different advance subjects,  sometimes I struggle to communicate my thoughts, and get teased.  Your role in Hidden Figures as Katherine Goble Johnson and the movie really inspires me to work hard on my disability when there are struggles.  Also I like to study U.S. History including history to help me learn the importance of the need to make Civil Rights stronger to reduce discrimination, have diversity to recognize people who are different, how different ideas can make a difference for society, and many others. Another thing that I like in history is learning how different famous people including public officials through celebrities who push for good ideas or help make a great impact on society or people.  Hidden Figures helped me continue to be motivated in learning history, U.S. history, and influential people who work hard to make a great impact on society.

I strongly believe that you do such a great acting in tv shows including movies. Also you really do an excellent job making characters have unique traits.  I’m very proud on how you worked hard on making Hidden Figures a great biopic movie with a great message.  You have inspired me to work hard on my disability and to continue to be motivated to learn history, U.S. History, and influential people. I was wondering if you could please take the time to answer some of my questions, and give me advice about working hard on my disability including how to continue to be motivated to learn history. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter, doing an excellent job making tv shows including movies great to enjoy, and inspire me. I wish you bets to continue to make movies and tv shows great to watch and do well in acting.

Sincerely,

Matt Winick
