She and her husband left Mexico in 1925, as both their well-to-do families suffered from the economic downturn that followed the Mexican Revolution. Far from being stigmatized as a woman of color, she was acknowledged as the epitome of beauty in the Hollywood of the 1920's and early 1930's. While she insisted upon her ethnicity, she was nevertheless coded white by the film industry and its fans, and she appeared for more than a decade as a romantic lead opposite white actors. Returning to Mexico in the early 1940's, she brought enthusiasm and prestige to the Golden Age of Mexican cinema, becoming one of the great divas of Mexican film. With struggle and perseverance, she overcame the influence of men in both countries who hoped to dominate her, ultimately controlling her own life professionally and personally. 606 $aMotion picture actors and actresses$zMexico$vBiography 606 $aMotion pictures$xSocial aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aMotion picture actors and actresses 615 0$aMotion pictures$xSocial aspects$xHistory 676 $a791.4302/8092 676 $aB 700 $aHall$b Linda B$g(Linda Biesele),$f1939-$01524495 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786359003321 996 $aDolores del Ri?o$93786906 997 $aUNINA
