Janet Huxley, Rhythm, was originally helping to support herself in college by teaching aerobic classes. The day she auditioned for the group she came straight from a class. missed her bus stop and had to run an entire city block back, not an easy thing when your 8.25" tall, to the right address, and then performed her audition well enough to get the part. She just keeps going and going. FYI. Rhythm is not an easy word for me to spell and I still find myself looking it up in the dictionary.
