What else can I help you with?
Were any African Americans ever employed by desilu?
Yes, many racial minorities were hired by Desilu in 1960s and it was the most liberal studio out of all the major studios of the day! This is largely due to the liberalism of Lucille Ball's marriage to Desi Aranz and her radical attitude against racism despite the attitudes of her friends and colleagues! It was because of Lucille Ball that we had Star Trek and Mission Impossible, of which the first major interracial kiss was aired on Star Trek! Desilu by 1960s standards was the champion of Civil Rights for Black People!
