Today I narrate Buster Keaton's memories of working with Bert Williams, as well as his frequent performance partners, George Walker and Aida Overton Walker. Aside from being a vaudeville legend, Williams is famous for being credited as the first Black American lead film Actor, gaining the credit for 1914's 'Dark Town Jubilee'. This episode is especially relevant for this series as Walker and Williams, like Keaton, share a connection to Sherlock Holmes. You can read more about that, and many other Black Sherlock Holmes actors, in Howard Ostrom and Ray Wilcockson's essay 'Voices in Darkness'.
