Now imagine this same person going back on the Burlesque stage in her late seventies and again performing to sold-out crowds. <br /> <br /> This is the story of April March and it is a must read. From the plains of the mid-West to the international stage, she remained true to herself and her dreams. Today, she is still determined to continue her career and be a role model to those women who followed her. Reading her story brings you into the world of Burlesque as never before from the inside and unique experiences of the "First Lady of Burlesque."</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Married as often as Elizabeth Taylor, April March is a romantic. She had her suitors, including the King of Saudi Arabia, eating from the tips of her satin gloves. Her story is incredible. She maintained her travails and triumphs with a wink in her eye and kindness in her heart. She is a mother, friend and teacher to many of the young women following in her footsteps today. She will always be a burlesque legend." - Leslie Zemeckis, entertainer, author and award-winning documentarian "Let April's story be a reminder that chasing a dream is not about attaining some definitive outcome. It's about having the guts to step out of your comfort zone and strive for greatness. The true payoff comes in knowing that you gave it your all and refused to settle for anything less than fabulous. And, April is that-fabulous!" - Craig Jackson, film producer "I first saw April March perform over 55 years ago. I saw her under a lavender light, wearing a killer smile. She was easily the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. The audience let out a collective sigh and I wondered how it felt to be surrounded by such adulation. April suggested more with her eyes than she ever did with her body. She is a treasure to burlesque and still draws crowds to each and every performance. She remains an amazing inspiration to me and everyone she meets." - Gerri Weise (Alexandra the Great), Burlesque Dancer "When April March performs, she transports her audience back to when she young and ruled the burlesque stage. Her grace and beauty have stayed with her and there is something about her that immediately draws you in. She is your friend right away. With April, you always get the real person. She is the same off stage as she is when performing. She is a friend that I will treasure and admire forever. I am sure that once you read her stories you will feel the same." - Grant Philipo, Owner and Operator Las Vegas Showgirl Museum<br>
