Ethel Waters

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the life and career of a groundbreaking female blues and jazz singer, the biography highlights her significant contributions to 20th-century theatre, cinema, radio, and television. Despite her immense influence during the 1920s and 1930s, she has largely been forgotten. Stephen Bourne provides new insights into her legacy, supported by fourteen photographs, illustrating why she was once revered as the preeminent Black star of her time.
