Dancer Robert Barnett trained under legendary choreographer
Bronislava Nijinska. His professional ballet career was launched
when he joined the Colonel de Basil Original Ballet Russe company.
In the late 1940s, when George Balanchine and Lincoln Kirstein
formed the New York City Ballet, Barnett was among of the first
generation of dancers. Under Balanchine's direction, he rose from
corps de ballet to soloist. In 1958 he became principal dancer and
associate artistic director of the Atlanta Ballet-the oldest
continuously operating company in America-and served as artistic
director for more than thirty years. He was head coach of the
American delegation to the International Ballet Competitions in
Varna, Bulgaria, in 1980, and in Moscow in 1981. Today he serves as
a guest teacher and coach at schools and companies throughout the
U.S., and remains remains active with Atlanta Ballet. Barnett's
autobiography recounts the life of a dancer and director, offers
insight on what is involved in pursuing a professional career in
dance and provides a history of ballet in America from the early
1920s through 2018.
