At The Professional Dancer's Society Gypsy Awards, October 3, 2008. Kudos to Joni Berry for always producing a loving and very touching event.
No woman is funnier on stage than PDS President
Mitzi Gaynor!
Danny Daniels, Gypsy Awards honoree, was very funny during his acceptance speech.
As was the other honoree, Russ Tamblyn. I was Russ's date when he was an Oscar nominee for "Peyton Place".
Talk about funny... Dick Van Dyke certainly fits that description.
Russ's "West Side Story" co-star George Chakiris also congratulating Danny.
It sure was fun to see "So You Think You Can Dance" producer/judge Nigel Lythgoe attend. He was definitely a huge plus at this event.
Nigel with beauties Deanna Lund and Alana Stewart.
March Schwartz is the only man who sings "Dites Moi" in my ear and his wife Linda encourages him.
Love this man!
How lucky for us Thalians to have John Holly direct our annual event again. This year we are honoring four time Oscar winner Clint Eastwood.
Lew and Arlene brought famed artist Jane Wooster Scott, and of course you know Jimmy.
A very dapper Andrew Prine giggling with Jane Withers.
We refer to ourselves as CC (Carol Connors), Luna Tuna and Deanna Banana (Deanna Lund).
Jimmy and I have a few favorites. Kate Linder is one of them.
Now here's a bevy of beauties! Ace dancers l-r, Pam Freeman, Parker Lesley Evans (standing), choreographer Anita Mann, moi, triple threat actress/comideanne, the sensational Teri Garr, but still a Gypsy, and our great gal pal, Rita Damico Hyde.
Our own Thalian's Chairman of the Board, Ruta Lee, Cher Lillico and friend.
