'Diahann Carroll walked this earth for 84 years and broke ground with every footstep. An icon. One of the all-time greats. She blazed trails through dense forests and elegantly left diamonds along the path for the rest of us to follow,' writes Ava DuVernay
Diahann Carroll was in her lifetime many things: a singular talent, a trailblazer, a breaker of barriers.
In the wake of her death at age 84, Carroll is being remembered as all those things and so much more by her friends and colleagues in Hollywood -- both those who had the privilege to work with her and those who simply had the chance to stand on the shoulders of her great accomplishments. Ava DuVernay "Diahann Carroll walked this earth for 84 years and broke ground with every footstep. An icon. One of the all-time greats.
