As previously reported, Dr. Angelou died last week (Wednesday, May 28) at the age of 86.  Winfrey released a statement about Dr. Angelou, whom she called her “mentor, mother/sister” and the indelible mark she made on her life and career:

“She was there for me always, guiding me through some of the most important years of my life. The world knows her as a poet but at the heart of her, she was a teacher. ‘When you learn, teach. When you get, give’ is one of my best lessons from her. She moved through the world with unshakeable calm, confidence and a fierce grace. I loved her and I know she loved me. I will profoundly miss her. She will always be the rainbow in my clouds.”
