Re: Frankie Weir
Frankie was very connected, and very driven. This is a woman who got out of San Luis Obispo, she had won a high school dance contest, eventually made it to New York, was a dancer at the Peppermint Lounge, was a Radio City Rockette for a bit, danced on Hullabaloo, and was a secretary at Apple records. With her impressive resume, I suppose one can understand how a young buck like Bobby Weir, could have fallen for the undeniably ambitious, lithe, intriguing Leo, Frankie.
