Dorothy Dandridge, Porgy and Bess (1959)
Dorothy Dandridge is, by far, one of my favorite actresses. She didn’t have many opportunities come her way, but the ones she did have she made the absolute most of.
The frustrating thing for me is that, as I said, she’s one of my favorites, but I have a lot of trouble finding pictures of her to share on Hollywood Yesterday. This is the only reason she isn’t featured in more posts.
Believe me, however, I am always on the look out for pictures I can buy and/or scan to add. I’m also in the process of collecting her movies (the ones that are in circulation anyway), so I can at least add screencaps of her.
In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the rare and wonderful pictures I CAN find.
