- Biography (note)
- "Between the 1920s and 1960s, New York City was the center for many private ballet studios founded by émigrés that flourished for several decades. Elisabeth Anderson-Ivantzova was part of that scene and made her distinct mark in teaching strict Russian classical ballet technique. She founded her school in 1938. Anderson-Ivantzova's classes were filled with many of the principal dancers of resident or touring ballet companies, such as the Mordkin Ballet Company, Ballet Theatre, Col. de Basil's Ballets Russes de Monte Carlo, or the Broadway Theatre. This study traces her training at the Bolshoi Theatre School in Moscow, her career in the Bolshoi Company, her departure from Russia after the Revolution, her subsequent professional career in Paris, Berlin, Lisbon and New York, and her teaching on 56th Street till her death in 1973."--dust jacket.
