Kimberly’s post of June 20, 2026 piqued my interest. I was not aware of Ruth St. Denis and entertainers of that era always seem to have an interesting backstory and/or intriguing career. Newspapers from that time provide so insight into the Kimberly’s “bejeweled” dancer and her show.

When reading newspapers of the early 20th century one cannot help but be entertained by the business advertisements of the era.
