    Extractions: The Wonder Children toured the South for several years, until 1930 when the family moved to California, settling in a $40 a month apartment in Los Angeles. Once there, The Wonder Children continued to perform for churches and benefits, and later, Dorothy and her sister joined with a third girl, Etta Jones, forming the singing group, "The Dandridge Sisters." After winning first place in a talent contest sponsored by a Los Angeles radio station, the girls were hired by a local circus and traveled with the troupe to Hawaii. Later, they also toured the country and recorded with the Jimmy Lunceford band and performed at the Cotton Club with jazz great Cab Calloway. In 1936, the Dandridge Sisters made their film debut in Paramount's The Big Broadcast of 1936, performing in a song-and-dance number with Bill "Bojangles" Robinson. The following year, the girls appeared in the Marx Brothers' feature, A Day at the Races (1937), Columbia's It Can't Last Forever, with Ralph Bellamy and Betty Furness, and the Warner Bros. Going Places (1939), starring Dick Powell and Anita Louise. After the latter film, the trio embarked on a frantic schedule which included performances with Bill Robinson and Louis Armstrong at the Strand Theater, and a European tour with comedian Jack Durant and the Jack Harris band.

    Extractions: Dorothy Dandridge (1923-1965), singer and actor Dorothy Jean Dandridge was born on November 9, 1923, in Cleveland, Ohio. The young Dorothy and her sister Vivian under the tutelage of their mother, an entertainer, began performing publicly as children and in the 1930s joined a third (unrelated) girl as the "Dandridge Sisters," singing and dancing. In the 1940s and early '50s Dorothy secured a few bit roles in films and developed a highly successful career as a solo nightclub singer, eventually appearing in such prestigious clubs as the Waldorf Astoria's Empire Room in New York City. Dandridge then won the title role in Otto Preminger's all-black Carmen Jones (1954), earning her an Oscar nomination. (She did not sing in Carmen Jones, however; the singing was dubbed by mezzo-soprano Marilyn Horne .) Because she was a black woman in a racially tense era, film offers thereafter did not come readily, though she did appear in Island in the Sun (1957), dealing with miscegenation and co-starring Harry Belafonte, as well as in The Decks Ran Red Tamango (1959), and

    Extractions: Dorothy Dandridge: Little Girl Lost I n an age of limited opportunities for nonwhite performers, Dorothy Dandridge broke all barriers to become the first African-American dramatic female movie star. But plagued with self-doubt and bent on self-destruction, hers was a turbulent and tragic life. Scenes from classic films, newsreels, trailers, rare photographs and intimate interviews with friends and colleagues document the dramatic life and career of actress Dorothy Dandridge. B orn in Cleveland, Ohio, on November 9, 1922, Dorothy Dandridge showed tremendous talent at a young age. By the time she was five, she and her sister Vivian were performing all over the South and earning enough money to support her entire family. Dorothy's beauty and beguiling manner made her a particular crowd-pleaser, but life on the road was difficult, and Dorothy developed a fear of live performances that would plague her for the rest of her life. A s she matured, Dorothy's talent continued to bloom. While maintaining her career as a nightclub performer, she sought new challenges in Hollywood, landing a plum role in 1941's SUN VALLEY SERENADE. Dandridge's luminous beauty and prodigious talent helped her to make a name for herself in Hollywood, though the task was far from easy. In 1954, the actress starred in the spectacular remake of CARMEN JONES with Harry Belafonte. The film was an unqualified critical and popular success, and the two leads were catapulted into the spotlight. Dandridge became a movie star overnight and received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress - the first African-American ever to be nominated for a leading role.

Produced during the years 1940 to 1946, soundies were made to be seen on self-contained, coin-operated, 16mm rear projection machines called Panorams located in nightclubs, bars, restaurants and other public places. Eight soundies, featuring a variety of musical performances, were generally spliced together on a reel which ran in a continuous loop. The Panoram, a complicated and unique machine, later served as the basis for the RCA 16mm projector. Soundies were produced by various companies such as Minoco and RCM Productions, a company formed by James Roosevelt (the son of Franklin D. Roosevelt) songwriter Sam Coslow, and Herbert Mills, a pioneer in the development of arcade music machines.
