For her role as Mammy, in Gone with the Wind (1939), Hattie McDaniel became the first African-American to be nominated for, and win, an Oscar (specifically: Best Actress in a Supporting Role). However, due to racial segregation issues at the time, Hattie was unable to attend the world premiere in Atlanta, Georgia.
