This lady played with the most famous actors and actors during that time . Love baby face with Barbara Stanwick.
She really challenged the stereotype she played a maid but not your typical buffoonish role and she was gorgeous she did a film with Marlene Dietrich where like in Babyface with Stanwyck she plays the role of a real friend on an equal level not just the maid she plays a con artist helping Dietrich with her schemes which of course shows intelligence I can't remember the name of the film but it came out in the late forties
The name of the movie is the Flame of New Orleans with Marlene Dietrich Theresa Harris plays a maid that is pretty witty without being buffoonish one of the best roles I've seen a black actress have during that time period a must see film for her performance alone
I’ve never heard of her at all! But it sounds like she was a rare actress, but still successful despite that. I love my successful black artists from the south. So thank you Glam. Please don’t stop making these.
There's many more where she came from 🥰 she's from the chocolate community and we have tons of love and talent I'm just saying❤️🖤💚✊🏾❤️🖤💚🥰black history forever
Keep spreading light on these amazing people! Great job 👏🏽
Ms. Harris was beautiful and very talented. I remember her from baby Face. May she rest in peace.
Sister of colors back in the days they look good ..👍🌹🌹 and they have class
She was so beautiful❤️
Thank you for bringing these two great African American actresses to light! They are particular favorites of mine! Especially Ms. Freddie as I could also pass for white but refuse to.
I'll never forget her. "Baby Face" w/Barbara Stanwyck is a must see! Ms Harris was amazing in it. Thanks for this video.
She was such a great beauty! Thank you for featuring her.
Thank You for bringing this Beautiful Black Actress. I was intrigued.She was so Beautiful.
She is in two of my favorite movies “baby face” and “out of the past”
Thank you for sharing with us the talented life of Theresa Harris who deserve much more.
Thank you for posting about this Black Icon!
Thank you! I had never heard of her. What a talented beauty. Such a shame she was never allowed to rise.
Young lady, thank you. Keep up the good work! 👍 All good and the music matches the times... not like others!
Thank you!
Thank you for featuring Theresa Harris. Being a film buff ..I've seen her in many films..but she always stood out to me ..one for her beauty & grace..she had class no matter the role..I'm now interested in finding some of the films on DVD you have in your video esp the one with Barbra Stanwick which I saw as a kid on TV in the 50's ..She is truly a STAR for me...!!
Strange I just saw Theresa Harris in a film on T.V. the other night..Cat People 1942.She played a waitress in a Creole restaurant. Her screen time was less than a min..but as always she stood out..!!
I remember her, and always thought she was so pretty and poised.
Thank you for paying tribute to this talented lady I've been telling people about her for years
Salute Thresa Harris for being fearless
Beautifully done! Thank you.
NICE, I enjoyed this.
I like to mention beside her acting, she had a great singing voice. Thanks to you, she gone Not Forgotten!
Thank you for your skill and respect for the subject matter.
She was one of my favorite actresses from the pre-Code era. Thank you so much for making a video about Theresa Harris!
Thank you so much for this video. Such a beautiful and talented actress. 🌺
Thank you soooo much for these videos. I really appreciate learning about these actors who are not well known. Please continue....

#THERESAHARRIS👑👑👑
excellent , great work
I've seen her in a number of films but I never knew her name. Thanks for uploading this. ♥️
I also loved her in both “Baby Face” and “I Walked with a Zombie”. She was definitely memorable. Thanks
For sharing the singing clips, I didn’t know she was also a talented singer 😊
You have gained a new follower. Thank you for shining light on these beautiful unsung people ❤
“By the Way, Meet Vera Stark”. Such a phenomenal show
“Babyface” was a game changer.
Just discovered your channel and it’s terrific!
The only movie I remember her in was Jezebel and I struck by her beauty and obvious intelligence. I didn’t realize that was her in Babyface. She was outstanding! Neither of these movies could not overshadow her talent. She came off to me as a real lady.
Brilliant! What a talented and beautiful woman. Definitely want to watch some of these films.
She was extremely talented and beautiful, but sadly was never given opportunities to showcase her talent. Thanks for making the video.
Yes l remember her in the movie with Barbara Stanbeck and a few others Beautiful and talented thank you for up loading this treasure
I love the way you present the info on these beautiful, intelligent, and talented icons. Thank you and looking forward to more.
Thank you so much for featuring this actress. Although it was common for those times, I still feel awful that she was not more widely known.
Yes, she will be remembered thanks to you❤
Even though she played a domestic worker she illustrated class.
Thanks, for bringing this fascinating, and very talented young actress to 💡 light there's so many we may never have learned about if not for stories like yours keep up the good work and bring more stories like this one to your lessons. Again, Thanks for sharing
Thank you for bringing her story to us. Can't wait to look up some of her movies
This is beautiful. I can't believe I never heard of her before.
Another AWESOME video. Thanks, Sis! I recall learning about her - and seeing some of her and other old-school Black actors & actresses (from that time period) roles.
She was so beautiful
Love how well this was done ✅
Beautiful lady! Very nice job on the narrative ! I want to see that movie!
Thank you for sharing! What a beautiful woman. She like many showed you could play a maid and still have dignity. She made the most of her opportunities. I’d love to know more about Mr Cooper opening an all black production company.
We black people love and respect her because she's one of us period❤️🖤💚🥰❤️🖤💚 Black History forever 🥰
WOW! Glamorous & Gifted. Oh, yes you summed it up, Ms. Narrator. Actress, Theresa Harris, would of been a "Household Name." If, only times we're different.
-Obie Amos.
Thank you!
Thank you for this video. I saw the film you mentioned. It was pretty daring for it's time, must have been before the Hays code. I think it was wonderful (to be honest) that she was able to live a relatively comfortable life.
Nicely done, bravo!!!✨ 👏🏾 ✨
love these Videos Leep it up Ty
That you for sharing this. I've always been a fan of Ms. Harris. However, l could not find any real information on her. I know that she was made to wear darker makeup, as most the actress of her time had to do. I loved her performance in Baby face. Thanks for filling in blanks about this beautiful queen!👍🏽
This Creole beauty was and is a credit to the art of being an actress of color with grace, dignity, and self respect❤ Thank you for such a beautifully crafted review. I used to watch old movies as a child and teen. I never knew this lady’s name. We didn’t have the internet then. I subscribed to hear more from you. 💞
Yes ... NOW i think i remember her ....in MANY film ....😊
❤ Thank you for doing a video on Theresa Harris.
I never heard of her.
Blessings Beautiful 🙏🏼🕊️ Shared
It looks like they darkened her skin whenever she was in white films. I remember watching her in the movie with Barbara Stanwyck and noticed she played a significant role. I didn’t know who she was though. Great video.
Really enjoying your channel!! Keep the vids coming. Enjoy learning about these stars ❤❤
Thank you for bringing us wonderful stories of unknown stars from the past. Great job!
Not sure why this channel was recommended to me, but I'm glad it was. Looking forward to more ✊🏾
Keep up the great work! Don't give up...your channel is needed!!!
Thank you so much for this ! 🌞
This is much needed & appreciated channel!! Keep up the good work 🌞🌻💜😇
Great Work, sis. Very good presentation and memorial. I hope your channel prospers. You deserve it most. 👏🏽
This is so awesome. Thank you💕
Thank you for this video. What a beautiful lady!
You can see the dark makeup that they put on her to try and make “look” as closely as possible to the Mammy role.
I saw the Off-Broadway play, mentioned here, _By the Way, Meet Vera Stark_ in 2011. Sanaa Lathan was excellent in the title role, inspired by Theresa Harris.
🕊❤ to Ms. Harris, 12/31/06 - 10/8/85. She was luminous on screen! 🔆😃
I really love your channel...I consider myself a classic film buff and I have never heard of her...thank you so much for giving this beautiful and talented woman her flowers

Thank you for this informational video she was fabulous and she was all that she could be during that time she had a very upscale life she was not on the farm picking cotton should be very grateful
She was beautiful and I’m glad she made the correct investments. I’m so happy that she didn’t die a poor woman. I’ve never heard of her before, but now I know who this beauty was.

Thank you for this!!
So interesting! Thanks.
Thank you for the knowledge.
She’s was beautiful ☺️
Hey! I knew that voice of hers sounded vaguely familiar. Yeah, she was in the masterpiece film noir “Out of the Past”
Loved her in out of the past.
One of the highlights of this video at 3:30 is the mention of The play, "By the Way, Meet Vera Stark" by Lynn Nottage, which is based on her career & Hollywood experience. Saw it last week and it was pretty good.
A Beautiful classy Creole woman.
Thank you
She was beautiful
Great Video
I've seen many of her films on TCM and she also appeared in the 1947 classic, Miracle on 34th Street (uncreditied) with Maureen O'Hara and John Payne. She also appeared in the 1938 Bette Davis film, Jezebel. Her skin was darkened in that film as Davis' maid. As was a number of light skinned black actressess of that era. Including Freddie Washington, Edna Mae Harris and Nina Mae McKinney. ( I hope you do a bio on her as well.) This was standard procedure at the height of the Golden Age of Hollywood filmmaking whenever a fair skin Black actress appeared on screen. The aim was to make them appear more "negro" looking especially if they appeared too White. As was the case of Miss Harris, Edna Mae Harris and Nina Mae McKinney.
Baby face is one of my favorites Stanwyck, Mae West, 1st blonde bomdshelle Jean Harlow and. Humphrey Bogart were true friends with Black Actors and would stand up for them demanding they have a role in their films
Yeah, I just saw her in Baby Face - such a breath of fresh air to see a genuine relationship between a white and black woman. Before the production code forced segregation on the movies as well as real life.
