JOSEPHINE BAKER

Art Deco print of Josephine Baker adapted to tee using Infranview and Corel PSP. The original photograph is in the public domain and can be found here
Josephine Baker was a burlesque performer in the 1920s.

Josephine Baker (June 3, 1906 – April 12, 1975) was an American expatriate entertainer and actress. She became a French citizen in 1937. Most noted as a singer, Baker also was a celebrated dancer in her early career. She was given the nicknames the “Bronze Venus” or the “Black Pearl”, as well as the “Créole Goddess” in anglophone nations. In France, she has always been known as “La Baker”.

Baker was the first African American female to star in a major motion picture, to integrate an American concert hall, and to become a world-famous entertainer. She is also noted for her contributions to the Civil Rights Movement in the United States (she was offered the leadership of the movement by Coretta Scott King in 1968 following Martin Luther King, Jr.’s assassination, but turned it down), for assisting the French Resistance during the Second World War and being the first American-born woman to receive the highest French military honor, the Croix de Guerre, and for being an inspiration to generations of African American female entertainers and others.

    Me too (no shame there). I appreciate her ability to ‘go for it’ without shame a century ago …amazing how 100 years on and burlesque is back in fashion. If my memory is right she was also lesbian …go girl go ….
