Serge Oukrainsky was born in 1885, in Odessa, Russia. He trained in
Paris with Ivan Clustine and first appeared as a mime at the
Theatre du Chatelet in 1911. He danced with Pavlova's company from
1913 to 1915 as both soloist and one of Pavlova's partners, and
occasional costume designer. After leaving the company he moved to
Chicago, where he formed the Pavley-Oukrainsky Ballet with his
partner Andreas Pavley, and from 1917 was also principal dancer,
choreographer and director of the Chicago Opera Ballet until 1927,
at the same time establishing with Andreas Pavley the
Pavley-Oukrainsky School of Ballet. Oukrainsky moved to California
in 1927, where he served as ballet master to the San Francisco and
Los Angeles operas until 1931. After Pavley's mysterious death in
1931 he formed the Serge Oukrainsky Ballet, and began to teach in
Hollywood in 1934. He died in 1972. His book tells the story of his
early life and initial training and of his dancing career and
sometimes difficult relationship with Pavlova.
