Janis PaigeA classic scene stealer, known for such films as Silk Stockings, Please Don't Eat the Daisies, Romance on the High Seas, The Caretakers, and Bachelor in Paradise, she turned 95 years old yesterday, September 16, 2017. Happy 95th Birthday, Ms. Paige. Hope it was a good one. Janis Paige's stage name was chosen in honour of Elsie Janis, vaudeville performer from Marion County, Ohio who worked in silent pictures. Hope she has a lovely birthday.

Happy Birthday Janis!! Silk Stockings 1957, with Fred Astaire I think I read she's the last living dance partner of Fred Astaire. Happy birthday (a little late) Janis Paige!

I wish her sitcom It's Always Jan (1955-1956) would be released on DVD. It wasn't a bad show based on the episode I've seen. Not as good as her films, but fun nevertheless.

Depends upon your criteria: Barrie Chase is still living, but she and Astaire danced together only for television. I can't recall just now whether he and Petula Clark did any together in Finian's Rainbow.
