Concert artist, Shakespearean actor, All-American athlete, scholar, champion of civil rights - Paul Robeson overcame tremendous obstacles to become a true 20th-century Renaissance man. Yet in the 1950s, he was blacklisted for political activism, and generations of Americans have never even heard his name. Winner of 8 coveted awards including an Oscar, and featuring rare footage of Robeson at home and abroad, Tribute to an Artist celebrates the warmth, dignity, courage, and talent of one of the greatest American artists of all time.

Based on the play by Eugene O'Neill.

Cast: Paul Robeson, Dudley Digges. Directed by Dudley Murphy.
