On March 9, 1996, she met
Rosa Parks while filming an independent film
with
Sean McNamara and
David Brookwell in Santa Clarita, California. Ms. Parks came
to the set to meet the cast and crew, and little 7 year old Brenda, who
had no idea who she was, just had fun talking with this sweet old lady
that everyone else seemed to be so impressed with for some reason. It
wasn't until years later that she learned the magnitude of that
friendly encounter.
