Sammy Davis Jr. mid fifties. I had an assignment to photograph Sammy Davis Jr. to show his multiple talents. We didnt have a rehearsal studio with a blank wall to make his shots readable. So we found a building on Hollywood Boulevard that had a low roof edge. We could use the sky as our background. the pictures used in this sequence are 5 out of maybe 300. My technical knowledge of dance was zero; I had to go by instinct. Davis was great. Finally we had the shots, and as we were packing up, he looked at me as if he wanted to do some more. Whats the matter? I said Are you crazy? No he said. I love to dance. Phil Stern
