Here I am in front of our house in one of my dancing outfits. It was made by the same company who made the dancing costumes for the June Taylor Dancers (remember them on the Jackie Gleason show?). This costume had gold sequins and feathers on the body suit and matching arm "mitts." This outfit was for a tap class - and I thought I was truly a "Fancy Nancy" in my sequined suit, tall head dress, tap shoes, and fish net stockings...
The other photo is of me on stage in Columbus, Ohio performing in "Tales of the Vienna Woods." This is cropped from part of our recital photo — notice I'm almost hitting the other little girl dancer in the head as I "strike MY pose" in position and look directly into the camera. What a ham!
Lots of fun and wonderful memories looking back at some of these old pictures...will have to share a few more after I dig through the countless albums and boxes...and also tell you about my wonderful dancing instructor, Martha Douce.
