Born as Rose Virginia Scott McClendon in 1884, she defied societal norms and shattered racial barriers to become one of the most celebrated African American actresses of her time. Photographed by the renowned Carl Van Vechten in 1935, this portrait showcases McClendon's undeniable talent and versatility. In this particular role as Medea, she exudes an aura of strength and intensity that captivates viewers even today. McClendon's career spanned across early 20th century Broadway, where she fearlessly took on challenging roles that challenged stereotypes and pushed boundaries. Her performances were hailed for their emotional depth and authenticity, leaving audiences spellbound night after night.

She paved the way for future generations of black performers who followed in her footsteps. In this stunning photograph, we see not just a talented actress but also a symbol of resilience and determination. The wreath adorning her head serves as a reminder of her triumphs against all odds.
