Dorothy Dandridge Facts. Dorothy Dandridge (1922-1965) was the first African American woman to receive an Academy Award nomination for best actress for her performance in the 1954 film Carmen Jones. Her glamorous image and turbulent life have inspired many to compare her to another equally tragic Hollywood figure, Marilyn Monroe.
Pam and Andrew were married on beautiful Hyams Beach in Jervis Bay on the NSW South Coast. Following their lovely wedding ceremony the guests were treated to a dolphin cruise in the bay.
In December 1987, Andrews starred in an ABC Christmas special, Julie Andrews: The Sound Of Christmas, which went on to win five Emmy Awards. Two years later, she was reunited for the third time with Carol Burnett for a variety special which aired on ABC in December 1989.
