Thomas J. Henry Texas’ largest personal injury law firm, Thomas J. Henry Law, PLLC, whose record-breaking personal injury verdicts and recoveries have been featured in Fortune, Forbes, and Newsweek magazines, is now representing clients injured by exploding headrests equipped in certain Dodge, Jeep, Chrysler, and Mercedes-Benz vehicles.  According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the Active Head Restraint systems in these headrests can “burst open” without warning, leaving vehicle occupants with serious head injuries and an increased risk of being involved in a crash.

TONY AWARD WINNER AND LEGEND CICELY TYSON DIES AT 96

  Cicely Tyson and Lenny Kravitz   Cicely Tyson has died at age 96. The famed actress who was known for playing strong Black leads and refusing to play roles that were demeaning to Black women, was nominated for an Oscar for her role as the sharecropper’s wife in Sounder and a Tony Award in 2013 at age 88.  This is very sad for the New York City Broadway world. For many years I photographed her in and around the Great White Way, the last time being with Lenny Kravitz backstage at the Miller Theater. Cicely's dressing room was beautiful, flowers everywhere from all around the world and you felt like you were in her living room.  Another legend to be missed.  Photo By James Edstrom
