Description

Balletomane means an ardent admirer of ballet. This book, by a true ballet historian and revered critic, covers the history and development of ballet and many ballet dancers worldwide over five decades. It relates authentic and unabridged stories about famous ballerinas and world-class ballet companies from many countries. Yet it also chronicles many unheralded but incredible dancers, choreographers, artistic directors, students, teachers and mentors. This is not a story for everyone. It is, however, a story for everyone who is impassioned by the beauty, history, mystique, allure and artistry of ballet.

Author Biography:

From the day her father took Lyn to her first ballet at the age of six, her life was neither normal nor prosaic again. It was like taking Alice to see Wonderland. Ballet came to define who Lyn was and who she was to become. A renowned ballet critic of exceptional insight and ability in several languages, covering two continents, she was also controversial. Lyn championed creativity and artistic talent over pettiness, internal politics, and even notoriety, and never hesitated to call out those who didn't do the same. Her writings were feared by some and loved by many.
