Diana “Lady Di” Ross sitting on bed backstage in 1965 at the Apollo Theatre, Harlem, New York. So much for stardom, you can tell it’s the early years with the shoes, bed and clothing all over before the performance.

Here Diana Ross (right) and two of the Supremes (Mary Wilson, Florence Ballard, and Barbara Martin) prepare for a performance at the Apollo Theatre backstage.
