  • It's winter, 1936 in New York.

  • A party is in full swing and everyone is having a good time time.

  • Drinking and dancing.

  • The cigarette smoke was so dense they could barely see each other.

  • The place is full of artists wearing patched up woolen suits and cheap sequin dresses, jiving as fast as they can just to keep warm.

  • This is Mary Gabriel, who wrote 9th Street Women.

  • Life outside on the streets was difficult because it was still the Depression.

  • Life inside their studios was difficult, but inside that dance hall they could let it all go.

  • They would buy bottles of booze, get together and have just a raucous good time.

  • In the middle of the crowd is a woman in her late 20s, Short Bob, net stockings, heels.

  • She's effortlessly dancing rings around everyone else.

  • Lee Krasner has got rhythm.

  • Dancing was one of the passions of her life, and she took it very seriously.

  • Lee knows she's turning heads, and not just because of her quick feet.
