I love love love Ms. Diahann Carroll, I met her once at a book signing and she was all that I hoped her to be. She makes me proud to be a black man.

Diahann Carroll: Born July 17, 1935 - Died October 4, 2019 at the age of 84 (Cancer). She was an American actress, singer and model. She rose to stardom in performances in some of the earliest major studio films to feature black casts, including Carmen Jones in 1954 and Porgy and Bess in 1959. In 1962, Carroll won a Tony Award for best actress, a first for a black woman, for her role in the Broadway musical No Strings. Her 1968 debut in Julia, the first series on American television to star a black woman in a nonstereotypical role, was a milestone both in her career and the medium. In the 1980s she played the role of a mixed-race diva in the primetime soap opera Dynasty. Carroll was the recipient of numerous stage and screen nominations and awards, including the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress In A Television Series in 1968. She received an Academy Award for Best Actress nomination for the 1974 film Claudine.

She was fantastic in "Claudine" as Claudine. My all-time favorite movie. Correction: it's tied with "Lady Sings The Blues".

Claudine my very favorite movie fast forward 2019 still have goose bumps watching, Ms. Carol priceless, thankfully proud I am to be a black woman. Was blessed to have one of the best Mother's in this world, 40 years later thank you for beautiful memories. God bless Ms. Carol's family I'm going to miss her. Thank you❣❣

Not only beautiful talented and classy but she will always be "Claudine" missed so much Ms. Carroll

Diahann is one of the best.

@lorimneal I couldn't agree more. Diana was a wonderful actress who never really got her due...she and Diahann were great friends who helped each other on occassion...while I can only imagine what Diana would have done with the part...Diahann IS Claudine...she slammed in that role. And made all the doubters eat their words.

Claudine..my favorite of all time. Rest beautiful Queen and thank you

I love that movie. Lovely actress. Very talented .

Such a beautiful movie I was young girl and I just loved that movie the music her performances Such joy growing up watching that movie

That movie is awesome. I was young kid at that time and that movie really showed black life in those days and the struggles of the most black mothers back then dealing with welfare bad kids and being a woman in love with a man. She did a great job.

I just watched Claudine last week for the first time. Claudine is a strong, tough single mother with 6 kids. I totally resented the SW's intrusion and loved when Rupert (James Earl Jones) put her in her place.

I love this movie so much even now.

RIP Miss Carroll!

Diahann would have be so great on Desperate Housewives. I wish someone would have been smart enough to cast her in that. I want to see her more in roles. She is fantastic!

For those who do't know who Diana Sands is, look up the original Movie for A Raisin in the Sun. She was Beneatha (in the movie AND the original Broadway play). She was also in the movie Willie Dynamite with Roscoe (Gordon on Sesame Street) Orman.

Diahann Carroll's Oscar 🏆nomination for Best Actress for Claudine was historic, not only for her superb performance, but due to the fact, that it was also an indie film which are often critically acclaimed but aren't always commercially successful. Claudine had both components 💰🎦 according to these box office 🎬 receipts: "Not only did critics enjoy the film, it was also a commercial success judging by the standards of 1974. The movie cost $3 million to make and ended up grossing $6 million the year of its release!!!"

An all-around great lady

Claudine was the best role she ever played!! R.I.H. Ms. Diahann Carroll

WOMEN OF MANY TALENTS WE ARE...AND JUST BECAUSE IT'S NOT REVEALED DOESNT MEAN THE DIFFERENT GIFTS/ SKILLS ARENT WITHIN...LOVED DIAHANN CARROLL IN DYNASTY

It's hard to see how hurt she was. You can see how she relived her friend repaying her a kindness. Hindsight must have been hard once her friend died.

I loved that movie. The songs by Gladys knight and the Pips sounds great

Hardly ANY coverage on Miss Carroll. White women pass every station every show WOW REST IN PEACE MISS DIAHANN ONE OF THE CLASSIEST MOST BEAUTIFUL ACTRESSES TO GRACE THE SCREEN!!!! ⚘⚘💕

She brought class to the role of Claudine!! The classiest welfare mother i know!!

Damn another great legend leaves us. She was an actress who never got her fair due of respect from Hollywood I mean yeah she got a few great roles but as far as longevity like white actresses she never got her fair share of great roles. I remember hearing her say in an interview that many times roles not given to her because - when asked to do something she as a human not as a character - but her as a human when she refused to do things that she felt compromised her dignity and self respect the industry turned on her making it seem as though she was the bad guy.

💐 RIP Diahann Carroll,84 (October 4th,2019) 🎬 🎤

And she should have WON FOR BEST ACTRESS!!!!👏🏽👏🏽💙💙🎥🎞️🎬🎭

I love this woman and all the actresses and actors of that period

One of favorite movies!

Lovely interview. "Claudine" was written specifically for Diana Sands by the husband/wife team Lester & Tina Pine. it was planned to be the role that would showcase her talent in an unmistakeable way -- so many in the business felt she was a truly great and gifted actress who was not getting the attention, the roles, the money, or the fame that she deserved. The director, John Berry was blacklisted during the McCarthy era, and had been living in France. Claudine was to be his US comeback. Also they wanted a diverse working crew. It was not just a film being made for profit, but a film these people believed in -- they were putting their politics into action at every turn. But, Diana got sick before any film rolled. Diahann did an excellent job, but one thing she doesn't say here is that although the director was John Berry, she worked privately -- really secretly, with a New York acting coach, Alice Spivak. It was her hard work with Alice that truly got her to the Oscars. Bravo all.
