The Tony award winner, multiple lifetime achievement honoree, boundary-breaking Broadway star and hit recording artist Melba Moore has lit up stages in some of the most memorable performances of the 20th century.
She’s the first Black actress to star as Fantine in “Les Misérables,” and her recording of the Black National Anthem, “Lift Every Voice,” occupies a place of honor in the Congressional Record as an American Oral Treasure.
This year, Moore has earned her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In this interview, “City Lights” host Lois Reitzes talked with the icon about her dazzling legacy.
