As much fun as this can be, I want to remind everyone that the OP was banned over a year ago, and unable to share in our joy should we ever find the dancer.
Pfft. This stopped being about the OP’s needs a long time ago. 
I’ll let him know on Facebook, if we ever solve this.
A couple of us attempted to contact Joe’s manager, but no luck.
He must have stepped out.
I’ve just tried tweeting to the man himself, Joe Jackson. Dunno if I’ll get a reply, and it’s unlikely he’ll remember, but he might, and he might. Sent him the link to this thread as well.
(too late to edit)
I also used the “Contact Us” form on David Kershenbaum’s website - he was the producer. Steve Barron was the director for the video; I’ll tweet at him next. I didn’t see anyone had tried that…
That was fast:
Worth a shot.
Does SAG have a New York office? They must. I’ll bet they have records going way, way back.
What was the video production company? Surely they’d have call sheets, like Paramount did for April Tatro.
Barron’s IMVDB page doesn’t list a production company on that particular video, but I see Limelight Productions on several of his other videos.
Limelight Productions produces a lot of search hits, and my Google-fu has failed.
Okay, I’d be out a fiver if I’d bet on this. I thought for sure it was a non-actress. The fact that Barron called her one dashes my Anonymous Amateur theory.
Or do you think “very good instinctual actress” could mean she was working using instinct only, and no acting lessons, and no acting gigs, before or after?
It would explain why no one can find her…
Or she did stage theater.
Or he was being nice because he feels bad about forgetting her name.
Having worked in television myself, I’m pretty sure you need a SAG card if you’re on-air talent, especially if you’re appearing in multiple productions (music videos, commercials…). No?
I think the next thing to try is a twitter hunt. Those people can find anyone. Thoughts?
But we don’t know if she ever worked again. SAG used to let a first-timer in, but you couldn’t perform after that without a union card.
She made a music video and at least one commercial. She must have had a card. No?
This is a fascinating thread. Maybe we need a generic thread to help ID people in music videos, male and female. For instance, I always wondered who the woman was who tantalized all 4 members of Asia in their 1983 video “Don’t Cry”. I gave up after a few days of brick walls.
It took many, many years to solve the mystery of who played the human form of Isis in the Star Trek (TOS) episode Assignment: Earth----so persistence can pay off.
(Too bad it’s not April Tatro in the “Steppin’ Out” video…)
“Jeanne” was close.
Now go back and search those yearbooks for Regina.
