Inscribed photograph of African-American television theater and film pioneer Ethel Waters 1896-1977 depicting her in one of her most famous roles and inscribed: "To Alice with the same devotion Hagar has for Lissa and you have for Natalie I have for you Ethel Waters." The photograph shows Waters as Hagar in the Broadway production of Mamba's Daughters 1939 a role which was adapted specifically for her by Dorothy and Dubose Hayward from their novel of the same name; it has been cited as the first dramatic starring role for an African-American actress ANB. On June 14 1939 Waters became the first African-American to host a television program when NBC broadcast "The Ethel Waters Show" a one-hour variety program which included a scene from Mamba's Daughters.

In 1949 she became the second African-American to be nominated for an Academy Award Best Supporting Actress for her role in Pinky. WITH: Autograph letter unsigned 6 pp to Natalie Hammond unknown

1922rif. 93787New York: Pace Phonograph Corp 1922. Very Good. 33 rpm phonograph record. The record label is slightly worn. A little visible shallow scratching. Later generic white record sleeve. We have no record player so have not attempted to play either side of this record. Ethel Waters was the star vocalist on the Black Swan label. She was "born again" after attending a Billy Graham Crusade in 1957 and often sang "His Eye is on the Sparrow" and perhaps other songs but probably neither of the songs on this record at Billy Graham Crusades during the last two decades of her life. The "Jazz Masters" who accompanied her on this record are thought to have been members of Fletcher Henderson's Orchestra. Pace Phonograph Corp unknown
