- Description
- This book pays attention to the written narratives of six acclaimed black women in entertainment: Diahann Carroll, Dorothy Dandridge, Lena Horne, Eartha Kitt, Whoopi Goldberg, and Mary Wilson. Dreher uses autobiography as a tool to see beyond the glamour image of popular culture and to explore each women's full meaning in American culture at large, in the American entertainment culture, and in the politically charged environment of the black community. We learn the real stories of the women as wife, (single) mother, widow, world traveler and wanderer, battered child/battred woman, divorcee, drug abuser, banished and exiled woman, activist/renegade and, ultimately, storyteller.

- Description
- Jackson traces the lives and influence of female blues singers, black and white, and celebrates the power of their music, which has been overlooked, she says. The women she limns, including pioneers Mamie Desdoumes, Ma Rainey, and Bessie Smith, jazz singers Billie Holiday and Etta James, and eventually pop singers Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin, and Janis Joplin, refused to follow the rules about how women should behave in society. The blues allowed women to express emotions and points of view to general American culture when women had little say outside the home, and women's blues constitute a commentary about the often-complicated lives of women in an era of great social change. In conclusion, Jackson insists that the legacy of the blues lives on in contemporary performers' music and attitude toward life. Hence, she finds a blues sensibility--a struggle for emotional freedom--even in Joni Mitchell.

- Description
- Babylon Girls is a cultural history of the African American women who performed in variety shows between 1890 and 1945. Through a consideration of the gestures, costuming, vocal techniques, and stagecraft developed by African American singers and dancers, Brown explains how these women shaped the movement and style of an emerging urban popular culture. They pioneered dance movements and the Charleston--black dances by which the 'New Woman' defined herself. These early-twentieth-century performers brought these dances with them as they toured across the United States and around the world, becoming cosmopolitan subjects more widely traveled than many of their audiences.
