I became an ardent, but never a specially good, dancer. ↗

I wrote the song For A Dancer for a friend of mine who died in a fire. He was in the sauna in a house that burned down, so he had no idea anything was going on. It was very sad. ↗

But you do have to start young as a dancer if you're going to achieve the physical skills necessary. ↗

I think it's useful to experience other types of dance and other cultures, and the life of a classical dancer these days is certainly not all tutus! So experience of other dance forms is a good idea. ↗

Young dancers are training at a very vulnerable time in their lives, through adolescence, and while they are trying to work out who they are as people, never mind as a dancer. So train the whole person, not just the dancer. ↗

My parents were opera singers and voice teachers, so growing up, I admired musicians and dancers. ↗

I had a wonderful childhood, coming from Cincinnati, and I think that it was great going into the life that I was going to have, where you have to start young as a dancer. ↗

I liked to read but, being a dancer, I didn't have a lot of time to read. ↗

I'm thought of as a cool, unemotional dancer, but inside I'm not. ↗

I'm glad I was born when I was. My time was the golden age of variety. If I were starting out again now, maybe things would happen for me, but it certainly would not be on a variety show with 28 musicians, 12 dancers, two major guest stars, 50 costumes a week by Bob Mackie. The networks just wouldn't spend the money today. ↗
