RIP Lena Horne

[shaveice]

"Lena Horne, the enchanting jazz singer and actress who reviled the bigotry that allowed her to entertain white audiences but not socialize with them, slowing her rise to Broadway superstardom, died Sunday. She was 92...."

Re: RIP Lena Horne

She was one of my most admired women during my lifetime. In addition to what's already been mentioned in the media, Ms. Horne was the Screen Actors Guild's first African-American board member. What a long and illustrious life.

RIP, Ms. Horne.

I heard of Lena Horne as the woman of Fred Sanford's dreams on Sanford & Son.
