Quote

Ms. Tallchief was often identified by critics and reference books as the younger sister of Maria Tallchief, one of George Balanchine’s leading ballerinas in New York City Ballet. But she had her own distinct identity as a versatile dancer who excelled in diverse ballets, from the 19th-century classics and Balanchine’s works to the experimental dances with a poetic tinge that were fashionable in France, where she danced with two companies in the 1940s and 1950s.
