Description: Bird was the only dancer of her time to work with all the major choreographers in concert and on Broadway. Here she recounts her theatre experiences with such luminaries as Orson Welles. She shared her methods and experiences as a teacher for Balanchine and her tenure at the Neighborhood Playhouse to highlight her philosophy of giving back.
