Bill Robinson, American Entertainer

Bill (Bojangles) Robinson (May 25, 1878 - November 25, 1949) was an African-American tap dancer, actor, and singer. His career mirrored changes in American entertainment tastes and technology; minstrel shows, vaudeville, Broadway theatre, the recording industry, Hollywood films, radio and television. He is best known for his dancing with Shirley Temple in a series of 1930s films, and for starring in the musical Stormy Weather (1943), loosely based on his own life. Despite being the highest-paid black performer of the time, Robinson died penniless, and his funeral was paid for by longtime friend Ed Sullivan. Carl Van Vechten, 1933 (cropped and cleaned).
