Actress Suzzanne Douglas, star of ’90s sitcom The Parent ‘Hood and more recently the Netflix mini-series When They See Us, has died at the age of 64.
When They See Us director Ava DuVernay was one of the first to lead tributes to the star, posting on her Twitter account, “Suzzanne Douglas was a quiet, elegant force as we made WHEN THEY SEE US.
Her TV work saw her appear in the comedy The Parent ‘Hood, The Cosby Show, The Parkers, NYPD Blue and The Good Wife.
In 2019 she starred as Grace Cuffee in the hit Netflix series When They See Us, based on the real life case of five teens falsely accused of an attack in Central Park.
