50 Stunning Vintage Photographs of Los Angeles Chorus Girls from between the 1920s and 1940s

According to literature, it is hard to exactly define the starting point of the common “chorus girl” dancer. It may have been traced back to the Ballet Russes, or perhaps it goes back further to the late 1800s days of the cancan dancers. Many famous actresses started their professional careers as dancers in a Chorus line including Marlene Dietrich, Ginger Rogers, Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn,... These vintage photographs capture Los Angeles Chorus Girls from between the 1920s and 1940s.
