Tibetan Actress -- A young Tibetan actress who has been in the public eye since she was old enough to crawl onto a stage. With a fine contralto voice and a wide range of character study, she blends the dancing necessary to Tibetan Entertainment. Her ancestors have been strolling players from time beyond memory. Tibetans balance their lack of cinema, television and radio entertainment by making their own fun. Most of them can play at least one musical instrument, and all of them can dance and sing. Troupes of players tour the country, enacting romances and dramas Handeo down over many centuries. February 15, 1951. (Photo by Associated Press Photo).
