Review: Paul Winker at Cheerleader, Dallas
Getting to Cheerleader is like finding a mirage in the desert, then discovering an oasis behind it. The route doesn’t come up on Google Maps. If it does, it sends you to a corner beside a glass-and-grass lot or a corrugated-metal shed, near empty shipping-container trailers, lots with rusty machinery and weeds, fences, and, of course, alley-cat heaven. Even after you reach the address, Cheerleader is easy to miss.

Ginger Rogers got her start in Texas
Fourteen year old Ginger Rogers danced circles around the competition at the Baker Hotel in Dallas on Nov. 9, 1925 to win first place in the state Charleston contest. Virginia Katherine McMath was born in Independence, Missouri – Harry Truman’s hometown – but like most “naturalized” Texans came to the Lone Star State just as soon as she could. In the case of Ginger, a nickname from a cousin who could not pronounce “Virginia,” it was in 1922 at the age of 11 that she moved to Fort Worth with her mother and stepfather, John Rogers.
