The first African American woman to have a network TV show was Ethel Waters, who starred in "The Ethel Waters Show" in 1939. Additionally, she was also the first African American woman to host a network radio show, "The Ethel Waters Show," which aired in 1933. Waters broke significant barriers in both television and radio, paving the way for future generations of African American entertainers.
