THE GREAT GATSBY

The Great Gatsby is a 1925 novel written by
American author F. Scott Fitzgerald that follows
a cast of characters living in the fictional towns
of West Egg and East Egg on prosperous Long
Island in the summer of 1922. Many literary
JOSEPHINE BAKER critics consider The Great Gatsby to be one of
the greatest novels ever written.

Josephine Baker was an American-born
French entertainer, French Resistance
agent, freemason and civil rights activist.
Her career was centered primarily in
Europe, mostly in her adopted France.
She was the first black woman to star in
a major motion picture, the 1927 silent
film Siren of the Tropics, directed by
Mario Nalpas and Henri Étiévant. Her
performance wearing a banana skirt is
still spoken about to this day.
