'Your papers, please' must never be heard in America
Dorothy Carter, a former stage actress who starred in the adaptation of the groundbreaking novel "Strange Fruit" on Broadway and later became an educator and a children's book author, has died after battling bladder cancer. She was 94.
In her 80s, she wrote three children's books inspired by her childhood: "Bye, Mis' Lela", "Wilhe'mina Miles: After the Stork Night" and "Grandma's General Store _ the Ark."
