Pam Grier
Actress
Winston-Salem, North Carolina

She is most know for her movies "Foxy Brown", & "Jackie Brown". Pam received a Golden Globe for "Best Actress" and an received an nominations for an Emmy, Satellite Award & a SAG Award. She most recently appeared in "The L Word" and "Law & Order" but has so much more on her resume.

Pam Grier was always a woman I looked up to as a young child, I wanted my fro to be just as big as hers as "Foxy Brown". In my eyes she was a strong black woman who exuded courage, strength, beauty, femininity and sass. Hats off to Ms. Grier!
