Met Lenny Bruce at the Caroline Hotel on Miami Beach. I was
dating a dancer in the show (Kaye Master), her girlfriend (Joyce
Nasare) was dating Lenny. After their show at the Caroline the
four of us would go out to a club for drinks and dancing. Lenny
taught us a new dance called the Hucklebuck, from a song written
by Roy Alfred.
