Mae West was an American actress, singer, playwright, screenwriter, comedian, and cultural icon. She was also considered one of the most controversial stars of her day. A supporter of the women's liberation movement, she was also an early supporter of gay rights and racial equality. Unabashedly risqué, she was heavily censored in Hollywood, but not before becoming the second highest-paid person in America in the 1930s. #wikisleep #sleep #MaeWest
