Harvey’s Big Break (Goodwin 2)

In 1934, Goodwin received his big break when Club Richman in New York City offered him a position with a salary equal to his government employment. Harvey’s good luck continued during his time at Club Richman when he secured the part of a female impersonator in Warner Brothers-Vitaphone musical comedy entitled The City Slicker.
