Alice Barker was a chorus line dancer during the Harlem Renaissance of the the 1930s and 40s. She danced at clubs such as The Apollo, Cotton Club, and Zanzibar Club, with legends including Frank Sinatra and Gene Kelly.
Although she danced in numerous movies, commercials and TV shows, she had never seen any of them. David Shuff got hold of the videos of her performing and showed them to her at her nursing home.
