Description

As seen on The TODAY Show! Bestselling author ReShonda Tate presents a fascinating fictional portrait of Hattie McDaniel, one of Hollywood's most prolific but woefully underappreciated stars--and the first Black person ever to win an Oscar for her role as Mammy in the critically acclaimed classic film Gone With the Wind. It was supposed to be the highlight of her career, the pinnacle for which she'd worked all her life.
