The skinny on Gwen Verdon....

So that little video influenced me to look up Gwen Verdon and find out more about her. I know I had heard her name before but didn't really know why. Gwen Verdon was Braodway, Movie and TV star who was married to legendary choreogrpher, Bob Fosse for 27 years. She won 4 Tony Awards in the 1950s for:

And who knew she could also get crunk like that!
