The holidays are right around the corner, so today we are featuring some dance reads that make the perfect last minute gift for the dance lover in your life. On today's episode of 'Conversations On Dance', we are joined by Miriam Landis, former Miami City Ballet dancer, Pacific Northwest Ballet School Faculty member, and author of the recently published book 'Lauren in the Limelight'. Miriam talks to us about overcoming adversity as a student and professional, stepping away from ballet for years to pursue other interests and returning to the world as an author capturing dance in young adult fiction, incorporating her own experiences and tying in themes that can help young dancers everywhere better understand their world and excel in their artistic journeys.
