Chandra Wilson, the five-time Emmy-nominated
Grey's Anatomy actress, is looking forward to bringing
some of her Houston family to Austin—and to finally
meeting fellow Texan Jamie Foxx—for the February
25 gala honoring the 2015 Texas Medal of Arts
recipients. "It's an amazing honor to get to be in this
company," says Wilson, referring not only to Foxx,
but also to the likes of Dan Rather, Lawrence Wright,
T Bone Burnett, and Robert Schenkkan.
Wilson swears that after all these years of
continued on pAGe 38
Jamie Foxx, shown
here signing
autographs for fans,
will be among this
year's Texas Medal of
Arts recipients.
