Randal Malone, great friend of Ann Miller, described how Ginger Rogers gave Ann her career break with Stage Door:"it all started with Ginger Rogers. When she went in for that audition, director Greg La Cava thought she was great but too tall to dance with Ginger Rogers. And right when that comment was made, Ginger was walking in Greg's office. After hearing this, Ginger said, "Well, I like how she looks. Can you stand a minute, string bean?" Ann Miller stood up and said, "Ms. Rogers, if I wore flat shoes with a shorter hat and you wore heels, don't you think it would balance out?" Ginger said, "I think you're right! You got the job string bean." Greg La Cava was not going to argue with Ginger Rogers. So he simply said, "There we go girls."" foxnews dot com/entertainment/classic-hollywood-star-ann-miller Jan 7, 2022The two became life-long friends and were often seen together through the years.
