I'll bet you thought her name was Bernadette. It's actually Bern
Nadette. She is best known as Thelma from Good Times! But there's much
more to her then that. In the 70s, Bern Nadette Stanis was the
personification of Black Beauty. As sophisticated and graceful as she
was, she still became TV's first Black sex symbol or "It" girl.
Thelma/Bern Nadette and The Evans Family also proved many stereotypes
wrong about the ghetto and the young black girl, like for
instance...that all Black girls and Black families in the ghetto had no
hopes, dreams, or class.

She is an Author these days as well as actress. She has written these
books on relationships. "Situations 101" and "For Men Only". Check out
her website at http://thelmaofgoodtimes.com

Anyway, I wanted to thank her for taking the time to add herself as one
of my MySpace friends.
