Juliet Prowse was a young South African dancer who burst into the international spotlight in her first Hollywood movie. Considered talented and exotic, she caught the media’s attention and her engagement to Frank Sinatra fuelled their fascination further. But was it true love and what did Sinatra make of Juliet’s relationship with Elvis during G.I. Blues? Unhappy with 20th Century Fox, Juliet broke out of her contract, created her own company and became one of the highest paid dancers of her era.  
While Juliet won awards for Sweet Charity in Las Vegas and London, opening on Broadway seemed to be elusive.  Juliet continued to build her world-class modern dance company, winning Female Entertainer of the Year in Las Vegas three times with competition from Liza Minnelli, Barbra Streisand and Shirley MacLaine. By the mid-1970s, she was on a $1 million contract as a Desert Inn Million Dollar Baby. Considered a triple threat, Juliet featured on the international stage for over four decades. 
This story is personal. Told by Juliet’s niece, it includes Juliet’s words from letters written to her mother, family anecdotes and amusing insights from those who worked with Juliet. With her endless legs and playful charm, Juliet had many romances and married actor John McCook of The Bold and the Beautiful. But in her search for love and professional fulfilment, could she accomplish it all?

Chris Mitchell (Cape Town, ZA)
Million Dollar Dancer

A well-paced and beautifully written biography about one of the world's best known dancers. The author, Juliet Prowse junior, had access to over 600 letters that Juliet senior wrote to her mother over the course of three decades and give a personal insight into the life and career of this charismatic entertainer. It charts the course of her romantic life as well and covers her engagement to Frank Sinatra, her dalliances with Elvis and Warren Beatty and her marriage to John McCook. An entertaining and heartfelt book, it shows the resilience and artistry of this acclaimed dancer.
