Today on Conversations on Dance, we are joined by Paloma Herrera. Paloma is an Argentinian ballerina who, at the age of 19, became the youngest Principal Dancer at American Ballet Theatre in the company's history. We talk with Paloma about what drew her to ballet, her teachers who shaped her as a dancer, her incredible career with American Ballet Theatre, and where life has taken her since her retirement at the age of 40.LINKS:Website: conversationsondancepod.comInstagram: @conversationsondanceMerch: https://bit.ly/cod-merchYouTube: https://bit.ly/youtube-CODJoin our email list: https://bit.ly/COD-emailConversations on Dance was the recipient of the 2024 Clive Barnes Award for Journalism and Media Achievement.Access bonus episodes on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/conversationsondanceWebsite: conversationsondancepod.comJoin our email list: https://conversations-on-dance.kit.com/7f73880f5bInstagram: instagram.com/conversationsondance Hosted on Acast.
