Arthur Murray International, Inc.
 PROFILE
If you really had two left feet, wouldn't you just keep dancing to the left? Arthur Murray International would prefer not to find out. Famous for its "footprints" method of dance instruction (foot outlines placed on the floor), the company franchises about 170 studios in nine countries. Dance lessons range in skill from beginning to competition-level dancing. The company was founded in 1912 by dance guru Arthur Murray, who along with his wife, Kathryn, hosted a 1950s TV show called "The Arthur Murray Party" (Arthur died in 1991, Kathryn in 1999). The company is owned by chairman and CEO Philip Masters and president George Theiss, who bought it from the Murrays in 1964.
