Dancing Through September In History

In September 1960 after 10 years, The Arthur Murray Television Show, AKA ‘The Arthur Murray Party’, hosted by Arthur & Kathryn Murray, aired its last episode.

Basically a long commercial/dance variety show, a contest was held every week – Whomever could guess the dance that Arthur & Kathryn were doing, would win 2 free dance lessons in the Studio. This show was 1 of only 4 shows that was broadcast on all 4 major television networks during the ‘Golden Age of Television’.
