    This Paper was written for ARCHAEOLOGY AND HISTORY OF THE AFRICAN DIASPORA
    at the University of South Florida - St. Petersburg,
    under the instruction of Dr. Kathryn Weedman.

    It is designed as a brief overview of the role that African American women have played in the history
    of Musical Theatre on Broadway. Given the limited nature of this project, it can consequently ONLY
    be an generalized overview and introduction, with commentary. For further information,
    please consult my Bibliography, Links and Resources pages.

    Thank you.
