IN HONOR OF AMERICAN PRIMA BALLERINA MARIA TALLCHIEF

MARIA TALLCHIEF

in conversation with  Evelyn Cisneros

A Words On Dance evening, filmed in 1998, in San Francisco. This vibrant conversation, with film segments, is a mesmorizing account of one of the most brilliant ballerinas America has produced. Maria Tallchief, in her own words, with another great ballerina of our generation, Evelyn Cisneros. Ms. Tallchief takes us through her life from the Osage nation in Oklahoma, out to her training in Beverly Hills with Mme. Nijinska, to the Ballet Russe, and to her unparalled career with George Balanchine at the New York City Ballet.
