Who played the black girl in imitation of life?
TCM’s Jeff Stafford, observing that “"Imitation of Life" is certainly one of [Beavers’] best performances and should have been nominated for an Oscar,” recalled that when the picture came out, “Columnist Jimmy Fiddler [sic] was one of many who objected to this oversight and wrote, ‘I also lament the fact that the motion picture industry has not set aside racial prejudice in naming actresses. I don't see how it is possible to overlook the magnificent portrayal of the Negro actress, Louise Beavers, who played the mother in "Imitation of Life". If the industry chooses to ignore Miss Beavers' performance, please let this reporter, born and bred in the South, tender a special award of praise to Louise Beavers for the finest performance of 1934.’ “
