Rest in Peace, Jeni Le Gon

Dancer, dance instructor, and actress Jeni Le Gon passed away last Friday (December 7th) at the age of 96.

Ms. Le Gon was a personal favorite of mine--I was introduced to her through the 1947 Cab Calloway film Hi-De-Ho.

My thoughts and prayers are with all of Ms. Le Gon's loved ones.

Here is Ms. Le Gon dancing in the 1939 film titled Double Deal...

...and here is a video of Ms. Le Gon performing in Seattle in 2007; this video was recently uploaded.
