I danced with Susan Jaffe at the Maryland School of Ballet when I was in middle school. She was very talented then. I was not an aspiring ballerina but I really admired the young women at the school who wanted to be professional ballerinas. Congratulations Susan! An honor to have danced with you, and taken classes with you.

I liked very much the journalist who interviewed her.He was very respectful unlike some others who won't let people speak.

Baryshnikov was a LOUSY director who almost destroyed the company of it's origins in STYLE, and was NASTY TRASH to those he didn't like, like BUJONES, CYNTHIA GREGORY, MARTINE VAN HAMEL among others. Mariana Tcherkassky, Amanda McKerrow, Cheryl Yeager, Ashley Tuttle, Julie Kent, all came from the same chicken coop where Misha was the medium sized rooster. Susan Jaffe was the most talented from that group and her performances with the Cuban Carreno were the greatest she ever did. She was GREAT as Lizzy Borden in the DE MILLE masterpiece. Baryshnikov fired Gelsey because he didn't need her anymore and she had huge anorexia nervosa and cocaine issues. NOBODY ever replaced GELSEY KIRKLAND. SHE IS A GENIUS. Misha's contribution to the dance world is as a dancer, THE greatest in history.
