During his 13 month stay at Audubon, Elvis became a multiple hit recording artist with RCA, movie star, teen idol, breadwinner for his immediate family who resided with Elvis , heartbreaker, showstopper, award winner and ultimately homeowner with numerous additions and customizations to the property as designated by Elvis, which remain to this day. On March 22, the band performed at the Mosque again. They had by now appeared on the Dorsey Brothers television show five times and were weeks away from making an appearance on the Milton Berle show from the deck of the aircraft carrier USS Hancock.
They had one commitment on the Dorsey show left. The last time on the show they had piqued the interest of New York photographer Al Wertheimer who had been hired by Ann Fulchino of RCA to shoot some promotional photos. Al would later arrange to meet up with Elvis in Richmond for his next and final appearance at the Mosque on June 30, and follow him from there to New York and back to Memphis where he would take several thousand photographs, many of which are now world famous.

By the time he parted company with Elvis that night, Wertheimer had snapped over photos of Elvis, nearly all of which caught casual off-stage moments.
Wertheimer was able to shoot before, during and after the Dorsey show rehearsal, as well as back stage before the live telecast.

Bill Willard, a reviewer for the Las Vegas Sun newspaper, panned the performance writing', For the teenagers, the long, tall Memphis lad is a whiz; for the average Vegas spender or showgoer, a bore.
His musical sound with a combo of three is uncouth, matching to a great extent the lyric content of his nonsensical songs'. Fontana said', I don't think the people there were ready for Elvis. He was mostly for teenagers, kids. We worked with Freddie Martin's orchestra and here we were three little pieces making all that noise. We tried everything we knew.
