Nanette Perrotte continues her Jazz history series with a view of Jazz era Paris--risque, exciting. Salon host and doyenne of cafe society, Ada Bricktop hosted luminaries such as Cole Porter, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, and F. Scott Fitzgerald at her Montmarte hot spot Chez Bricktop. Josephine Baker arrives on the shores of France in La Revue Negre. Cole Porter pens the lyrics and melodies of this bright young time in world history.
