Bern Nadette Stanis — 22nd December, 1953
Participating in Miss Black America gave actress-turned-author Bern Nadette Stanis the platform she needed to step into the limelight. She then landed the role of Thelma in the sitcom Good Times, which was the first ever to be based on a Black family, and it did not stereotype its characters. They say that the show paved the way for more people of color to work in television.
Eventually, after working in The Cosby Show and What’s Happening Now, Bern became a writer and has penned 4 great books on issues ranging from finances to relationships. On the personal front, Bern has been married 4 times and has 2 beautiful daughters who are very proud of their trailblazer mom.
