- Description
- As a singer, model, and actress Grace has consistently been an extreme, challenging presence in the entertainment world since her emergence as an international model in the 1970s. In 1980, the always ambitious Grace escaped a crowded disco scene to pursue more experimental interests. Her music also broke free, blending house, reggae, and electronica into a timeless hybrid that led to classic hits such as “Pull Up to the Bumper” and “Slave to the Rhythm.” In the memoir she once promised never to write, Grace offers an intimate insight into her evolving style, personal philosophies, and varied career

- 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.

- Ethel Waters (1896-1977) overcame a disadvantaged childhood to become the most famous African American actress, singer, and entertainer of her time. Having triumphed in black vaudeville during the Harlem Renaissance, she moved to Broadway in the mid 1920s. She brought much of the innovative character of black theatre into the mainstream and was almost immediately acclaimed by white critics and audiences alike. In this biography, Bourne documents her career, and tries to explain her influence and popularity. The book includes a transcript of an interview with Waters on Britains BBC Radio 4, a list of films, theaters, etc. in which she performed, and a list of her songs..
