Awestruck by a performance of the great Anna Pavlova, Agnes de Mille resolved to become a dancer. Other members of her family were established in the theater - her father a respected playwright, her uncle a legend in film. But the de Mille name, though impressive, was useless in the world of dance.
When she finally did begin lessons in ballet, she found she was older than the others and lacked a ballerina's figure.
