Abstract
Music has always been an integral part of Leslie Uggams’s (1943–) career—while still a teenager, she received her first recording contract and became a regular on the popular television show, Sing Along with Mitch, and in 1968 she won a Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical for her performance in Hallelujah, Baby! Her TV credits—which include Beulah, The Leslie Uggams Show, Roots, and Empire—span more than six decades. Adrienne Faillace conducted the interview on June 3, 2016, in New York City, New York.
期刊介绍:
How did Casablanca affect the home front during World War II? What is the postfeminist significance of Buffy the Vampire Slayer? The Journal of Popular Film and Television answers such far-ranging questions by using the methods of popular culture studies to examine commercial film and television, historical and contemporary. Articles discuss networks, genres, series, and audiences, as well as celebrity stars, directors, and studios. Regular features include essays on the social and cultural background of films and television programs, filmographies, bibliographies, and commissioned book and video reviews.
