Today, she's a renowned teacher and the Artistic Director of Eastern Connecticut Ballet. In our conversation, she shares her life as a dancer and gives fascinating first hand insight into the legend of Mr. B.

Helene Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 She had such interesting things to say about working with Balanchine and her approach to teaching. I'd never seen her in person, but every time I watch the "Apollo" excerpt with her, Suzanne Farrell, Patricia Neary, and Jacques d'Amboise, I can't take my eyes off her. Link to comment
