Cicely Tyson, Groundbreaking Screen and Broadway Actress, Dies at 96 | People

Cicely Tyson made history in 2018 as the first Black woman to win an honorary Oscar. "I have managed Miss Tyson's career for over 40 years, and each year was a privilege and blessing," her manager, Larry Thompson, said in a statement Thursday. "Cicely thought of her new memoir as a Christmas tree decorated with all the ornaments of her personal and professional life. Today she placed the last ornament, a Star, on top of the tree."
