<p>Back in 2019, Ruth first made history when she won an Oscar for her work in &#8220;<em><a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/black-panther-officially-u-s-s-top-grossing-superhero-film-time/">Black Panther</a></em>,&#8221; making her the first black woman to win the award for costume design. Her work has been featured in many classic films, and we&#8217;ll get to see her work in the upcoming film &#8220;Coming 2 America.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to <em><a href="https://variety.com/2021/artisans/awards/ruth-carter-walk-of-fame-1234913760/">Variety</a></em>, Ruth talked about getting her star and said, &#8220;The first thing I wanted to see when I moved to Los Angeles in 1986 was Hollywood Boulevard and the Walk of Fame. I think those stars are synonymous with Hollywood past and present.&#8221;</p>
<p>Some of the classic films Ruth has designed for include &#8220;School Daze,&#8221; &#8220;Do The Right Thing,&#8221; &#8220;Crooklyn,&#8221; &#8220;What&#8217;s Love Got To Do With It,&#8221; &#8220;Love &; Basketball,&#8221; &#8220;B*A*P*S,&#8221; &#8220;Malcolm X&#8221; and a long list of other films.</p>
