Actress Alfre Woodard had her younger son, Duncan Spencer, with husband Roderick Spencer. He is a younger brother to Mavis Spencer.
The actress tells MomLogic, “Being a mom has made me a more forgiving and tolerant person. Creative people — like actors, writers, directors — we’re the calmest. But when you get to a level of suits, there’s a level of behavior that’s seen as so powerful, because they hold your career in their hands. These are people you have to gear up to go in and talk to, because they shout! But as a mom, you know how to get what you need from this kind of person. You don’t take it personally, or go there yourself when they spin out. No matter how corporate it gets, it’s still the same valuable skill set: keeping order, keeping people organized, keeping people motivated. And stopping people from pulling each other’s hair out!”
