Maria Felix was the most iconic Mexican actor of all time. Throughout her life she defied patriarchy, fought against machismo and ignored the caste system, giving fans a liberated woman of color to admire. She was a divorcé when it was considered scandalous. She was the first brown actress during a time when the only Mexicans in the media were white-passing. She declined Hollywood when they offered her mediocre roles. Maria Felix garnered the nickname "La Doña" after her 1943 role in Doña Barbara, and further cemented her name by exerting power over camera angles and lighting. She went on to personify a strong female character in subsequent roles as well as in her personal life.
