My beautiful ballerina, Carrie, for always inspiring me with her grace, dedication, and brilliance. Dance like no one is watching!
My husband, Peter—this is what I’ve been doing at my desk every day! Thanks for putting up with my crazy deadlines. XO
Dances Patrelle for its breathtaking Yorkville Nutcracker. Francis, you’ve given our “Nut kids” and all of NYC an amazing gift. We’ve loved being a part of it for the past six years and hope for many more to come!
Anne Kelly, Maureen Duke: you take such great care of our kids and teach them to soar! Thanks for your help, always!
Zenmommy and her trio of terrific dancers, Bri, Sophie, and Tristan! Nuggie, Olivier is for you!!!!
Madison Heller and family: we’ll miss you in L.A.! Keep dancing and following your dreams!
All the teachers and staff at Ballet Academy East for your love and support—hard to believe it’s been ten years of ballet classes for Carrie!!!
My agents Frank Weimann and Katherine Latshaw at Folio, and the wonderful team at Bloomsbury, especially Brett Wright (who makes every revision fun and easy!) and Cindy Loh. Couldn’t have done Dance Divas without you.
