He has worked with practically ry important feminine star in Hollywood, at their request. Among those who have asked for his ser- vices are Jeanette Macdonald, My- rna Loy, Janet Gaynor and Mar- garet Sullavan. His latest appear- ance in “Born To Dance” is due to the fact that Eleanor Powell de- manded that he be her leading; man.
