This is the first authorized biography of four twentieth-century
American Indian ballerinas: Marjorie Tallchief, Rosella Hightower,
Marjorie Tallchief, and Yvonne Chouteau. Each grew up in Oklahoma
during the 1920s and 1930s and went on to achieve international
fame. Lili Cockerille Livingston, who worked with all four
ballerinas during her own career as a dancer, draws upon her
extensive interviews with the women to bring their stories to life
while also shedding new light both on the development of New York
City Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, and the now-defunct Harkness
Ballet and Grand Ballet du Marquis de Cuevas.
