BOOK
Love, Queenie : Merle Oberon, Hollywood's first South Asian star
2025
Overview
Merle Oberon attained Hollywood immortality with a nomination for a Best Leading Actress Oscar for her role in the 1935 film 'The Dark Angel'. It was the first time a performer of colour had received an acting nomination at the Academy Awards but because Oberon concealed her South Asian identity throughout her lifetime and 'passed' for white, very few people knew it. In 'Love, Queenie', the first biography in more than forty years of the India-born actress, Mayukh Sen draws on family interviews and previously untapped archival research to animate the 'Wuthering Heights' star's hard-won journey to fame.
