Dancing on the Edge: A Journey of Living, Loving, and Tumbling through Hollywood by Russ Tamblyn
Always enjoyed Russ Tamblyn's film work - especially the incredible dance sequence in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. Not a really big fan of West Side Story but he also did incredible dancing there as well. He was under contract at MGM for many years. I am glad he found a path (in addition to acting) in artwork to hone his many talents. I just wonder though, if he would have wanted one of his daughters to be one of six shacked up with a man, as he was.
