President Obama marked the passing of Lena Horne, calling her a great entertainer and a tireless worker for justice and equality.
The American singer, actress and dancer, (1917–2010), enjoyed a six decade career on television, screen, and stage and redefined black roles in entertainment. She died Sunday at age 92 after a breast cancer diagnosis three years ago.
