I love pretending tht I’m a nymph in a magical moon pool while I shower . droplets sparkle like stars .. suddenly all of my lotions and oils are like potions and elixirs that make me glow and glitter in the night . the flowers curl around me and sing me lullabies n I wake up smelling like petals

Dorothy Dandridge was born 92 years ago today in Cleveland, Ohio. You know I’m having an off (quiet!) Sunday if it takes me this long to put her up - but here she is in one of my favorite photos from my book, Vintage Black Glamour. I saw this picture in the Schomburg library at least ten years ago and KNEW it had to be in my book: Ms. Dandridge taking a dance lesson in the 1950s with Russian-born dance instructor Olga Lunick in Hollywood.
