About the artist Fred Astaire

Fred Astaire began his vaudeville career at five, and by their early 20’s he and sister Adele were dancing legends in the U.S. and Britain. With his perfectionism, creativity, and grace he redefined the movie musical, and he and partner Ginger Rogers set the standard for future dance pairings. But choreography and dance were not his only forte. He was a natural singer who introduced more songs by great American tunesmiths than anyone else. After a highly successful Broadway career, Adele left the team to marry in 1932. Fred was first paired with Rogers - later partners included Rita Hayworth, Cyd Charisse, Vera Ellen, Leslie Caron, and Audrey Hepburn.
