Roberta Flack (1937—2025)

GME honors the artistry and legacy of singer-songwriter Roberta Flack with this photograph of Flack taken by Jack Mitchell in 1971 — a year before her recording of Ewan MacColl's "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" became a number-one hit and made her an international star. Flack passed away on February 24, 2025, at the age of 88. Mitchell's portrait of Flack is featured in the exhibition Harlem, Hollywood, Broadway: African American Legends, which first opened at the Huntsville Museum of Art in Alabama in January 2020.
