Third Girl from the Left

Christine Barker

Blurb from a JoCoNaut:

Non-Fiction Memoir 9+ hour audiobook

The blurb sez: A moving, real-life account of making it as a dancer in New York City, embracing the changing faces of love and family, and being at ground-zero for one of the most fatal epidemics of modern times.... Wanting to be a dancer while growing up in a large military family made Christine Barker somewhat of a black sheep, but she followed her dreams to New York City, where-in a moment of almost unbelievable good fortune-she was chosen for the London cast of A Chorus Line.

It was an account of the aids epidemic from a very personal viewpoint and seen from the gay community. I read it and recommend it
