But when she first placed her hands on the barre at an after-school community center, no one expected the undersized, anxious thirteen-year-old to become a groundbreaking ballerina. When she discovered ballet, Misty was living in a shabby motel room, struggling with her five siblings for a place to sleep on the floor. A true prodigy, she was dancing en pointe within three months of taking her first dance class and performing professionally in just over a year: a feat unheard of for any classical dancer. But when Misty became caught between the control and comfort she found in the world of ballet and the harsh realities of her own life (culminating in a highly publicized custody battle), she had to choose to embrace both her identity and her dreams, and find the courage to be one of a kind. Life in Motion is an insider's look at the cutthroat world of professional ballet, as well as a moving story of passion and grace for anyone who has dared to dream of a different life.--Publisher description. 000718412 60010 $$aCopeland, Misty. 000718412 650_0 $$aBallet dancers$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000718412 650_0 $$aBallerinas$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000718412 650_0 $$aAfrican American dancers$$vBiography. 000718412 7001_ $$aJones, Charisse. 000718412 85200 $$bgen$$hGV1785.C635$$iC66$$i2014 000718412 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:718412$$pGLOBAL_SET 000718412 980__ $$aBIB 000718412 980__ $$aBOOK
