EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1928, showcases five dancers and dance teams who were making waves in the entertainment industry during the Jazz Age in America. In the top left corner, we find Nancy Carroll, a rising star at Paramount Pictures, poised and elegant as she strikes a pose. To her right, Adele Smith gleams with glamour, having recently appeared in the hit musical "George White's Scandals: Manhattan Mary." At the center of the image, Ilya Raycelle, Margot Zolnay, and Cesar Romero come together in a dynamic trio. Ilya Raycelle, a talented dancer and choreographer, captivates with her expressive movements. Margot Zolnay, a Hungarian-born dancer, brings a sense of grace and sophistication to the group. And Cesar Romero, an accomplished actor and dancer, adds a touch of charm and charisma. In the bottom left corner, Cesar Romero is joined by the Irwin Sisters, a popular dance duo of the time. Their youthful energy and synchronized moves were a crowd favorite in ballrooms, cabarets, and nightclubs. The sisters' age is not mentioned in the caption, but their youthful appearance and exuberant expressions suggest they were still in their prime. This photograph is a snapshot of the vibrant and diverse dance scene in New York City during the 1920s. From vaudeville and variety shows to jazz clubs and ballroom dancing, dance teams and solo performers were a staple of American nightlife. This image, taken at the Ambassador Hotel, is a testament to the excitement and innovation of the era, and the enduring appeal of dance as an art form.
