Thelma "Butterfly" McQueen (January 7, 1911 – December 22, 1995) was an American actress. Originally a dancer, McQueen first appeared in film in 1939 as Prissy, Scarlett O'Hara's maid, in the film Gone with the Wind. She was unable to attend the movie's premiere because it was held at a whites-only theater. McQueen also had a role on the controversial Beulah radio show. Often typecast as a maid, she said: "I didn't mind playing a maid the first time, because I thought that was how you got into the business. But after I did the same thing over and over, I resented it. I didn't mind being funny, but I didn't like being stupid."
She continued as an actress in film in the 1940s then moved to television acting in the 1950s.
Born Thelma McQueen in Tampa, Florida, on January 7, 1911, she planned to become a nurse until a high school teacher suggested that she try acting. McQueen initially studied with Janet Collins and went on to dance with the Venezuela Jones Negro Youth Group. Around this time she acquired the nickname "Butterfly" – a tribute to her constantly moving hands – for her performance of the Butterfly Ballet in a production of A Midsummer Night's Dream. (She had always hated her birth name, and later legally changed her name to Butterfly McQueen.) She performed with the dance troupe of Katherine Dunham before making her professional debut in George Abbott's Brown Sugar. She received a bachelor's degree in political science from New York City College in 1975 (she was 64).

African American musical variety show featuring The Nat King Cole Trio, the Clark Brothers and other musical and comedy acts. Dusty Fletcher plays a comic, tap dancer and bad magician. While practicing his routine for that evening's variety show, he accidentally vanishes Lola (Nellie Hill), the girlfriend of the show's manager Baltimore Dumdone (George Wiltshire). She was wearing a thousand-dollar string of pearls and it seems most likely that criminality is afoot. Dusty's slapstick antics take up a large portion of the film's first act, with some Keystone Kops-type schtick thrown in when four police officers (Fredie Robinson, William Campbell, Edgar Martin and Sidney Easton) begin chasing Dusty in and out of his disappearance-cabinet.

Jack Benny Show Titled Jack & Mary Go Christmas Shopping. Original Air Date Was 12/19/1943. This was during the final season of the "GRAPE-NUTS PROGRAM" (General Foods, Jack's sponsor, replaced "Jell-O" with "Grape-Nuts" in the fall of 1942 because the shortage of sugar during World War II limited Jell-O's availability). The script is by Sam Perrin, Milt Josefsberg, George Balzer and John Tackaberry. Butterfly McQueen appears as "Butterfly"; John Brown [who had previously been a part of Fred Allen's cast] is "Mr. Brown"; Frank Nelson, of course, is "The Floorwalker"....

I¡¯ve finally broke your cool!
leave my things just where they are
I didn¡¯t think it would go this far
makes no sense no sense at all
that¡¯s why this bird must fly away
Finally broke the rule!
butterfly you made me say
I¡¯d never leave but I can¡¯t stay
I¡¯d never hurt you willingly
but it¡¯s time this bird must fly away
bird must fly today
butterfly away
(butterfly speaks) what am I supposed to do now that
love¡¯s gone away, take my life, take
my air, release me from this
body, I¡¯ll go anywhere!
I feel you rising Butterfly McQueen
