Plenty of Good Women Dancers

This 53-minute documentary videotape features exceptional local African American women tap dancers whose careers spanned the 1920s-1950s. Restricted to few roles, often unnamed and uncredited, these women have largely remained anonymous within (and outside) of the entertainment industry and sometimes even within the communities in which they reside. Glamorous film clips, photographs, and dancers’ own vivid recollections provide a dynamic portrait of veteran women hoofers prominent during the golden age of swing and rhythm tap. Plenty features the late Edith 'Baby Edwards' Hunt, the late Libby Spencer, and Hortense Allen Jordan, with LaVaughn Robinson, Germaine Ingram, the late Delores and Dave McHarris, Kitty DeChavis, the late Isabelle Fambro and the cast of "Stepping in Time," and historic footage of Jeni LeGon, Cora LaRedd, Dottie Saulters, Juanita Pitts, the Miller Brothers and Lois, the Four Covans and others. The documentary was directed by Germaine Ingram, Debora Kodish, and Barry Dornfeld, and produced by Debora Kodish and Barry Dornfeld. Plenty is produced with the assistance of Ballard Spahr Andrews and Ingersoll, LLC and the Philadelphia Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts, Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, The National Endowment for the Arts, and the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts. 53 minutes. 2004.
