Played Florida Evans in Good Times.
Her character was originally Maudes housekeeper.
She didn't end up having 'Good Times.
She and John Amos, who played the father,
left the successful show on principal after the 4th season.
They thought the show was wasting an opportunity
to continue tackling more important issues when the producers changed
their focus to JJ Walkers 'dyn-o-mite' 'frivolous' character.
Lived to 78, on 11/17/98
