Tap dancing legends Fayard (b. 1914) and Harold (1918-2000)
Nicholas amazed crowds with their performances in musicals and
films from the 30s to the 80s. They performed with Gene Kelly in
The Pirate, with Cab Calloway in Stormy Weather, with Dorothy
Dandridge (Harold's wife) in Sun Valley Serenade, and with a number
of other stars on the stage and on the screen. Author Hill not only
guides readers through the brothers' showstopping successes and the
repressive times in which their dancing won them universal acclaim,
she also offers extensive insight into the history and choreography
of tap dancing, bringing readers up to speed on the art form in
which the Nicholas Brothers excelled.
