Louise Brooks in the Ziegfeld Follies
in 1924, Louise joined the Ziegfeld Follies, and performed in the Ziegfeld production, Louie the 14th when it opens in Washington D.C.
Louise Brooks was elevated from the chorus to one of Ziegfeld’s “Glorified Girls.” Louise did a specialty dance during the 1925 Summer Follies, which also included W.C. Fields and Will Rogers. Vargas painted her portrait, which hung in Florenz Ziegfeld’s office.
