Synopsis "Brown Skin Showgirls: A black and white photographic collection of burlesque, exotic, shake and chorus line dancers, strippers and cross-dre"
There are many art and entertainment resources that reference the contributions and important roles women of color play in shaping the art of dance in North America. However, it is rare to encounter a historically rich and visually stunning book that is dedicated solely to the brown skin showgirl or black burlesque of the early- to mid- 20th century. BROWN SKIN SHOWGIRLS is a black and white photographic celebration of the many brave African American and Cuban women who performed exotic, rumba, salsa, calypso, striptease and much more on Leon Claxton's Harlem in Havana Revue during the heyday of burlesque. This book is guaranteed to expand your knowledge of these performers who helped shape American entertainment and popular culture as we know it today. Many of them have transitioned or their whereabouts are unknown. All attempt have been made to verify the names of the individuals appearing in this book. Thanks to this special collector's edition, they will never be forgotten. Get ready to be titillated! Visit harleminhavana.com.
