Ann Reinking, dancer, choreographer, actress, and educator

Article Abstract:

Ann Reinking, born on November 10, 1949, is considered to be one of the finest dancers in the jazz-modern idiom and one of the most interesting things about her is the joy she brings to dancing and performing, which is transmitted to the audience. Reinking, who has identified herself as a 'musical performer,' studied classical ballet as an adolescent and teenager; her training in dance for musical theater began on the job in 1968, at Radio City Music Hall.
