Opal D. Cooper (1889 – 1974) was an African American actor and singer.
Though little remembered today, in the years immediately after World War I Cooper "was without question the most aclaimed black dramatic actor in the recent history of the American stage".
[1] Personal and professional papers relating to him are held in the Opal Cooper collection at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture, New York Public Library.
