Dear Wade,
It was me who sent the lovely Lou Ann and the Sensational Senor Rai to James Kriegsmann in NY for their publicity shots.
The first time I saw Lou Ann's trapeze was in White Plains, I was sitting in the balcony -- the music started with "The Days of Wine and Roses". Lou Ann's act stopped the show, I kid you not.
Doesn't anybody have a tape of this act? She opened above the rigging on a revolving platform with a handstand, etc.
For those who need professional head shots, the best place for classic glamour shots in NYC is kriegsmann.com
It is run by James, Jr. who still recalls the great stars of circus AND Broadway and Hollywood coming into his father's studio.

The three costumes in the "feather photos" contain more feathers than RBBB has used in it's last three or four productions.

Mike - Actually, I do have a home video of her act that I got from Benny and Yvonne Cristiani many years ago. I have had trouble getting the tape to work and didn't want to mess with it. If you know someone who can save this, let me know and I would be happy to share it.
