Hardcover. Etat : Good. According to dance critic Clive Barnes's introduction, impresario Szilard 'is a critic who puts his money where his opinion is.' Szilard has done that and more in a career spanning several decades. Drawing on his years as a dancer, teacher, and choreographer, as well as a producer, Szilard has penned a colorful account of the world of dance during the last half of the 20th century. Born in Hungary in 1912, Szilard danced all over Europe until World War II intervened. As his dancing days waned, he devoted himself to producing rather than performing. Szilard was responsible for, among other things, introducing the Dancers of Bali and the Bunraku Doll Theatre to U.S. audiences and the New York City Ballet, the American Ballet Theatre, and the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater to audiences around the world. He includes numerous deftly written stories about the dance divas (and divos) of the time. Dance fans will devour every tasty morsel of backstage drama served up by this man characterized by Barnes as 'a wonderful mix of blunt honesty, bitchy wit and oddly self-deprecating charm.'
