{{AFC submission|||ts=20190228155812|u=FloridaArmy|ns=118}}Johnny Hudgins (May 5, 1896 - ) was a vaudeville performer. He sometimes performed in blackface. Hudgins was nicknamed the Wah-Wah Man (wah-wah) and was known for his mime performances accompanied by accomplished trumpeters. He was friends with fellow vaudevillian Josephine Baker who he performed with in the show Chocolate Dandies.[1] He was also in the show Lucky Sambo.[2] He used burnt cork to blacken his face and performed with exaggerated white lips in many of his performances.[3] His performances drew rave reviews and imitators. Hudgins sought to copyright his performance art.[4]

Hudgins performed with Florence Mills and was accompanied by trumpeters including Doc Cheatham, Johnny Dunn, Joe Smith (trumpeter), Louis Metcalf and Rex Stewart.[1]

Hudgins was born in Baltimore, Maryland.[1]

Career

Hudgins performed in Harlem's clubs, toured America, and toured Europe where he was referred to as a "colored" Charlie Chaplin.[1] He also performed with his wife Mildred Martien and Fredi Washington.

Hudgins featured in films including a Pathé film of Hudgins performing to "Renoir Charleston" in Jean Renoir's Charleston Parade with Catherine Hessling and in the film A Night in Dixie.

He was photographed by Edward Elcha.[4] Emory University has a collection of his papers.[5]
