Eleanor Powell, a movie star and dancer from Hollywood's golden era, passed away in 1982 at age 69. The ex-wife of actor Glenn Ford is the subject of a new book.
Authors Paula Broussard and Lisa Royère, who began their research in the ‘70s, spoke to numerous sources who knew and worked with Powell, as well as Powell herself. The actress died in 1982 at age 69. Stephanie Nolasco covers entertainment at Foxnews.com.
"We felt that Eleanor’s legacy had fallen to the wayside," Broussard told Fox News Digital. "She left films relatively early. Many other musicals in Hollywood with Gene Kelly and Judy Garland certainly became more known. But frankly, I’m really surprised she isn’t as known today."
