Jo- Issa Rae Diop, known as Issa Rae, is an American actress, writer, director, producer, and web series creator.
After a wildly successful web series, Misadventures of an Awkward Black Girl, her HBO series Insecure that’s now in its third season, a major role in the upcoming film The Hate U Give, and an Emmy nomination, it’s safe to say that Issa Rae is an icon in the making.
The actress has graced the cover of Glamour’s TV issue and dished about bringing her unique voice to screen.
Issa kept it really real in her latest interview with Glamour, telling the magazine that one of the things that is most important to her is being truthful to herself and how she writes.
