The Man Who Made the Jailhouse Rock - Mark Knowles - Bog

Choreographer Alex Romero created Jailhouse Rock, the iconic Elvis Presley production number, but never received screen credit for his contribution. Part of Jack Cole's exclusive Columbia dance troupe, he was hired as a staff assistant at MGM. When Romero transitioned into full-time choreography, he created the dances for numerous films, including Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, and three additional movies for Elvis. This biography includes first-person accounts of his collaborations with Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Judy Garland, Frank Sinatra, and others.
