Summary
This is the story of a small-town girl who made good the hard way; of pirate records, dubbed movie soundtracks -- she was the voice of Dorothy Dandridge in Carmen Jones -- foreign apprenticeships, small parts, and the breaks that finally came. Her famous roles include Rosina, Adalgisa, Carmen, Trancredi, Isabella and Arsace. It is also the story of her relationship with the black conductor Henry Lewis and their 1960 marriage that everyone predicted would end her career.
