Additional Details

Red Grooms states "I donated the edition of Fred and Ginger to Senator Howard Metzenbaum's re-election campaign. The senator and his wife, Shirley, love dancing, which sparked my idea for this version of the famous musical motion picture couple." Metzenbaum served as a Democratic member of the Senate from Ohio in 1974, and from 1976 to 1995, known for his staunchly liberal ideals during Reagan's presidency.
