In a New York state of mind … with Henning Rubsam

This New York/New York anecdote comes from our Facebook friend, Henning Rübsam, the artistic Director/Choreographer of SENSEDANCE:

Back in NYC. Last night at the MET watching ABT …

“Are you in fashion?,” the old lady sitting next to me started the conversation.

“Always in fashion. But professionally I am a choreographer,” I answered.

“My nephew is one, – Billy Forsythe. He lived with us when he wanted to become a dancer and his father threw him out.”

“You did the dance world a great service. What do you do?”

“I ran a modeling agency. Ford Models.”

She and I simultaneously: “”I am/You are Eileen Ford.”"
