TVC 726.4: Jennifer Jones, the first African-American member of the Radio City Rockettes, talks to Ed about her battle against colorectal cancer in 2018 (including the importance of having the right medical team for her); how she came to write her children's book, On the Line; how she came to create the Dancing Jenn doll; and how she first dreamed of dancing on stage when she was nine years old, after seeing The Wiz on Broadway. March is both Women's History Month and Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Both Jennifer's memoir, Becoming Spectacular, and her children's book, On the Line, are available through HarperCollins and Amazon.com, while the Dancing Jenn doll is available through Wal-Mart. For our listeners in the Greater L.A. Metro area, Jennifer Jones' story is also included in This Joint is Jumpin', a new exhibit at The Hollywood Museum that honors the contributions of many notable black artists, singers, actors, writers, and sports figures.
