Steve Clark, Water Rat 666
James Clark, Water Rat 667
James was born in Philadelphia on July 23rd 1922 and his younger brother Steve came along two years later. Coming from a devout religious family (both boys knew 125 hymns by the time they were 5) it was hard for the Clark parents to accept the frivolity of dance but seeing how well their cousin (Sammy Davis Jnr) was doing, it was hard to ignore it. They were both performing at Harlem's legendary Cotton Club at 15 & 17 and were soon selling out venues on the Chitlin' Circuit.
It was when they played the Catskills opening for the likes of Frank Sinatra, Sophie Tucker and Howard Keel that the Variety theatre doors opened for them. It was Sinatra who told them to go to England and perform the circuit there, and once they did, they were so successful they made the UK home.
Tours, TV shows and Royal Variety were soon regularly in their diaries and they became one of the most sort after dance acts in Britain.
James died in 2009 & Steve in 2017.
