Biography

Nora Hendrix (born Zenora Rose Moore; November 19, 1883 – July 24, 1984) was an African-American vaudeville performer who lived in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. From the early to late 20th century, Hendrix was a prominent member of Vancouver's vibrant Black Strathcona community. The community thrived within the 1940s and was displaced circa 1970 by the City of Vancouver with the demolition of Hogan's Alley.
