歌舞大王佛羅倫茲‧齊格飛二世 (Florenz Ziegfeld Jr.) 於1869321日出生了

強壯山道是一個23歲男子,擁有強壯的肌肉,但是他本來在紐約只獲得小小的成功,直到齊格飛成為他的經理之後,他才真的大紅大紫。齊格飛在1893年把山道帶到世界哥倫比亞展示 (世界表演) 裡,並且邀請芝加哥觀眾碰觸山道強壯的肌肉。表演的收入因此大增。齊格飛的大勝利,他很快就接著推出歌舞團表演。


The Great Sandow, a 23-year old muscle man, performed with only moderate success in New York, until Ziegfeld became his manager. He whisked the young man off to the World's Columbian Exposition (a world's fair) in 1893 and created a sensation by inviting members of Chicago's high society backstage to touch Sandow's mighty muscles. Revenues soared. Ziegfeld's great triumph, the Follies, came soon after.
