Jewel grew up in California and was a natural to swing dance
as well a being beautiful and sexy. During the 1940s, Jewel
would dance in many contests with dean as well as perform
with him in motion pictures. Jewel danced
with Dean Collins for over ten years on and off the screen.
Jewel has been said to be 'the greatest female swing dancer
that ever lived.'
Her style can be seen in many swing dance movies of the
past, as well as in many swing dancers of today, emulating
her unique style, today known as Hollywood style. Her cool
relaxed style and smooth movement made her a joy to watch.
Jewel's "Switches" were unmatchable.
