with the body" shared Nancy Zeckendorf from the tage at New
York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln
Center. The celebrated philanthropist and former

music and I love improvising to it. But you know, I
wasn't dancing because I wanyed to dance. No, I wanted
to be the music. And much later, my teacher Antony
