Little Women of Frank Wendt Vaudeville's Hoofers and Sweethearts Book

At the turn of the century, thousands of young girls without the benefit of child labor laws traveled and performed nightly in the vaudeville and burlesque theaters of America.  Photographer Frank Wendt took their photographs.   They appear in the book HOOFERS AND SWEETHEARTS: THE LITTLE WOMEN OF FRANK WENDT.
