Robert Louis “Bob” Fosse was an innovative choreographer and won 8 Tony awards for his marvelous choreography. Not bad for a boy born as the youngest of six children, to a Norwegian man and Irish woman.

Just as Michael, Bob Fosse also died prematurely (at the age of 60 of a heart attack). On the bright side, their legacy will live on, continue to inspire people of all arts, colors and ages!

Dance, Dance, Dance
