Actress Mira Waters appeared on ATWT around 64/65.

That would make her one of the first black actresses to appear on the show,I think.

Irna spoke at the time of her battles with P&G to have black performers on the show in substantial roles and not as janitors or waitresses.Perhaps she had a role as a nurse?would that have been unusual in those days?Mira Waters

I do not remember her.   The show sometimes showed nurses or secretaries who were African-American.    Actor P. J. Sidney appeared on the show, so maybe she was his character's date.   These performers rarely had speaking parts that I can remember, so it would have been unusual is this actress spoke.
