I went straight to the interview with Saland, whose dancing I loved for years. It's fascinating and quite frank; one of the topics she talks about at length is how Gelsey Kirkland took her under her wing at NYCB.

More discussion of this interview is on the Gelsey Kirkland thread.

Helene...I too love Seland as she performed here in Orlando a few years back and would love to read that article. My question is where can I find Ballet Review...? I'm assumming it's only available on line by subscription. Any help would be appreciated!

I too was fascinated by the Saland interview, not only for what she had to say about Kirkland, but for its unusual candor and the vivid evocation of the era and the personalities.
