Career

Charny's first big break came in early 1965, when she was cast as one of the featured dancers in the weekly NBC musical variety series Hullabaloo, which aired until spring of 1966. She was the lead frug dancer in the original Broadway production of Sweet Charity and reprised the role in the movie version (1969). From 1970 to 1986, she frequently appeared on television shows such as The Night Stalker, Kojak, The Rockford Files, Starsky & Hutch, The Incredible Hulk and others.[1]

Charny is also a sculptor. Her figural work is based on her career as a dancer and includes representations of dancers in motion. She notes that growing up in Brooklyn, she was inspired to model the human form by watching her father build larger-than-life nude sand sculptures at Brighton Beach.[2]

Awards and honors

Charny was a 2004 recipient of the Professional Dancers Society's Gypsy Robe in honor of her contributions to the field of dance.[3]

gollark: It is IN NO WAY subliminal pizza advertising because I DO NOT work for pizza companies in any form. __*This is NOT true*__. I have not in any way been sponsored by pizza companies. There have been no advertising agreements whatsoever with any companies producing pizza or otherwise to have me subliminally advertise pizza, as my profile picture is not a pizza. *Since it is not a pizza*, this is obviously not pizza advertisement whatsoever. No monetary exchanges or otherwise have occurred with companies engaged in pizza production for any reason relating to my profile picture. *It's not pizza.* There were no deals, under-the-table or otherwise, with pizza companies. No pizza companies pay for any kind of subliminal advertising involving me. **I'm DEFINITELY not** paid by pizza companies to have ANY subliminal pizza advertising, actually. It is not a pizza. People say that it's subliminal advertising for the delicious pepperoni pizza offered by PizzaCo, but really it's not. __It has never been a pizza__. My profile picture is not, will not, has not been and cannot be, in any way whatsoever, a pizza.
