Portrait of Las Vegas Entertainer Wayne Newton

(Original Caption) Hollywood: No matter how big the entertainer on television, records, clubs, or Broadway, there is an overwhelming compulsion to star in motion pictures. Wayne Newton has invaded the sound stages to star in 80 Steps To Jonah's, a heavy dramatic story about an orphaned migratory worker in trouble with the police. Why does a top flight singer with 23 record albums and all the nightclub offers he can handle want to become a straight actor? "Most people say it's a challenge," Wayne said, "I want to diversify."
