Patrice Adams-Fauci oral history interview

Identifier
OH-02060
Abstract

Oral history interview with Patrice Adams-Fauci conducted by Joyce Marshall on June 19, 1996 for the Las Vegas Women in Gaming and Entertainment Oral History Project. In this interview, Adams-Fauci relates how she traveled to the United States with the Bluebell Girls dance troupe in 1960. She continues talking about life as a dancer, how the rules of behavior and comportment differed in Europe, and how strange it was to see racial prejudice in the entertainment industry in the United States. She ends the interview by explaining that dancers had to quit once they married and how she returned to school and became an interior designer.
