Feiffer has noted: “I have always loved Fred Astaire as a model, inspiration, and someone I
wanted to emulate in my drawings . . . I started to draw [Astaire], putting down lines, and my
attempt was to make dance on paper. Fred was my partner, my inspiration. Fred led. I fol-
lowed”—American Pictures interview with Feiffer 30 April, 2010 (Smithsonian American Art
Museum).
