Born in Trenton, NJ, Sammy Williams toured in shows in upstate New York before making it to Broadway in 1973. While dancing in 'Seesaw,' a show by Broadway powerhouse Michael Bennett, Williams was picked for a group of dancers to participate in and be filmed, candidly discussing the trials and tribulations of life in the theater. What Williams didn't realize was that Bennett planned to turn the material into a history-making production called 'A Chorus Line.'
