Jeni LeGon began dancing and performing for audiences on the sidewalks of Chicago. As a solo dancer with the Count Basie Chorus Line, she set her sights on Hollywood. There she landed a role with Bill “Bojangles” Robinson in Hurray for Love, followed by over a dozen other films.

Jeni’s heartwarming story and inspiring career are celebrated in What Tap Dancing’s All About, a picture book for all ages illustrated with vibrant watercolours by Nancy Haver.
