While tap dancers such as Fred Astaire were major Hollywood stars, and the rhythms of Black male performers such as Bill "Bojangles" Robinson were appreciated in their time, Black female tap dancers seldom achieved similar recognition. Who were these women? The author sought them out, interviewed them, and documented their stories for this book.
