The family revolves around BeuIah, a big woman with a big smile and a bigger heart, in this groundbreaking comedy series from the dawn of teIevision. As the "domestic" for the Henderson family - Harry, AIice and IittIe Donny - BeuIah is the unofficial matriarch of the household. During its four year run, severaI different actresses played the title roIe - Ethel Waters (1950-1952), Academy Award winner Hattie McDaniel (1952), and Louise Beavers (1952-1953). BeuIah's best friend, OrioIe, was played by Butterfly McQueen until 1952 when she was repIaced by Dorothy Dandridge's mother, Ruby.
