Pearl Bailey

I'm worried about how this thread will fare because I don't know how many people of know of her, but she's absolutely awesome. She was an American singer, dancer, actress who appeared on Broadway and even won a Tony. She starred alongside Dorothy Dandridge in "Carmen" and "Porgy and Bess" and she also starred in countless other films and plays. My first introduction to her was at age five because she voiced Big Mama in Disney's "The Fox & the Hound."
