Cicely Tyson – 95
Cicely Tyson has etched her mark in history with her performances on films like ‘Sounder’, ‘The Autobiography of Miss Jane Pittman’, and many others. Cicely remained somewhat active in her later years, appearing in ‘The Help’ in 2011! Cicely is a pioneer to feminists, as her strong portrayal of independent women made her a role model during less socially aware times. She has even received a Presidential Medal of Freedom, which was presented by President Barack Obama in 2016 and doesn’t seem to have aged a day!
