EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary Stepin Fetchit, whose real name was Lincoln Theodore Monroe Andrew Perry. Stepin Fetchit was not only an actor but also the first African American movie star, breaking barriers in the early days of entertainment. The image is a film still from "Hearts of Dixie" released in 1929. In this scene, we see Stepin Fetchit playing a banjoist alongside an unidentified actress. Their chemistry is palpable as they engage in what appears to be a courtship or flirtatious interaction. Both actors exude charm and charisma, capturing the essence of early cinema. Stepin Fetchit's contribution to African American representation on screen cannot be overstated. He paved the way for future generations by challenging stereotypes and showcasing his talent as a versatile performer. Despite controversy surrounding some aspects of his career, he remains an important figure in Hollywood history. The Granger Collection has beautifully preserved this photograph, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic value. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of diversity and inclusion within the entertainment industry.
