Inhalt
Almost no other star of the 20th century reimagined herself with such audacity and durable talent as did Ethel Waters. This biography sheds new light on the tumultuous twists and turns of the career of this astonishing woman, which began in Black vaudeville and reached new heights in the steamy nightclubs of 1920s Harlem. It traces Waters' life from the poverty-stricken childhood to her rise in show business, her career as one of the early blues and pop singers - with such hits as »Am I Blue?«, »Stormy Weather«, and »Heat Wave« -, her success as an actress, and through her lonely, painful final years. The author chronicles her career ups and downs and her tempestuous relationships with a series of husbands and lovers, male and female, as she struggled with racism and sexism and her own complex personality as a woman known to be both profane and pious.
