(1902-1962)
Louise Beavers began acting in the early 1920's as an extra before eventually earning more notable roles. She performed in the silent film, Uncle Toms Cabin (1927) but gained more notoriety as films developed with technology. Beavers acted in well over 150 films between 1920 and 1950. Unfortunately she was often confined to portraying the "mammy" stereotype.
