Ziegfeld and His Follies: A Biography of Broadway's Greatest Producer (Screen Classics)  by Cynthia Brideson

Sara Brideson

The name Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. (1867–1932) is synonymous with the decadent revues that the legendary impresario produced at the turn of the twentieth century. These extravagant performances were filled with catchy tunes, high-kicking chorus girls, striking costumes, and talented stars such as Eddie Cantor, Fanny Brice, Marilyn Miller, W. C. Fields, and Will Rogers. After the success of his Follies, Ziegfeld revolutionized theater performance with the musical Show Boat (1927) and continued making Broadway hits?including Sally (1920), Rio Rita (1927), and The Three Musketeers (1928)?several of which were adapted for the silver screen.
