Saturday night at the Las Vegas Jewish Film Festival, a new documentary film explores the life of the talented singer, dancer, and actor Sammy Davis, Jr.
Las Vegas played an outsized role in the triumphs and tragedies of Debbie Reynolds, the legendary entertainer who died Wednesday, one day after the passing of her daughter Carrie Fisher.
Last time, we were talking about the Rat Pack and the Summit at the Sands. There would be repercussions that affected the life of Frank Sinatra, who was born a century ago, December 12.
Let’s play word association. If I said entertainers and Las Vegas, what combinations come to mind? A lot of them, I’m sure. Liberace, certainly. Siegfried and Roy, of course. Wayne Newton? Sure.
