CDA: Marge Champion

My thanks to Scott Seyforth for alerting me to the death of Marge Champion. 101! That's what Broadway folks call a really long run, bless her heart. The NY Times had a lovely long obit on her - - I had forgotten that she had served as a live-action model for Snow White. Here's a fascinating short film about that process:

She was best known as half of a dancing pair with her husband, Gower Champion. Here they are in the movie of *Show Boat:*

One more, please! Here they are dancing to "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes" in the movie *Lovely To Look At.* Total movie magic.
