Celebrate Taraji P. Henson's Incredible Career With These Little-Known Facts

Taraji explained to Glamour how motherhood has been a constant priority for her, and how everything worked out perfectly. "Even if I had 5 a.m. calls, I'd get up and cook him pancakes, eggs, and sausage and leave it in the microwave for him all wrapped up. The crazy thing is that my career really grew as he was growing. When I was first starting out, no one knew who I was, so that gave me time to go to all of his games and PTA meetings."
