Biography

Beyond her vocal dubbing and film appearances, Etta Moten portrayed Bess in the 1943 revival of "Porgy and Bess" at the personal invitation of Ira Gershwin (not George, who passed away in 1937). Etta and her husband Claude Barnett, founder of the Negro Associated Press, represented the United States at the independence celebrations of Ghana and several other African nations. As a radio journalist, Etta interviewed Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. following the Ghana ceremonies on March 6, 1957, and hosted her own radio program on WMAQ/NBC in Chicago for many years.
