EDITORS COMMENTS
This cover image from the September 1929 issue of Dance Magazine transports us back to the Jazz Age, a time of vibrant energy and innovation in American entertainment. The cover features the radiant Ruby Keeler, a rising star of stage and screen, with her beaming smile and expressive eyes that seem to sparkle with the excitement of the era. Keeler is shown in the arms of Al Jolson, the legendary performer and cultural icon, as they engage in a lively dance number. The cover art, with its bold lines and Art Deco influences, reflects the dynamic and modern spirit of the time. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties or the Jazz Age, was a period of cultural transformation in the United States. It was a time when dance became a major form of entertainment, with new dance styles emerging from the cabarets and nightclubs of New York City. Ruby Keeler was a key figure in this scene, having made her Broadway debut in the chorus line of "Whoopee!" in 1928 and quickly rising to stardom. Her partnership with Al Jolson, a seasoned performer and mentor, helped launch her career and solidify her place in American entertainment history. This cover image is a testament to the enduring appeal of dance as an art form and the excitement of the 1920s, a time when the stage was set for new and innovative forms of expression. With its lively energy and Art Deco style, this cover continues to captivate audiences and transport us back to a bygone era.
