Rebroadcast of My First Interview 16 years ago with dance photographer, Rosalie O'Connor

To commemorate 16 years of CHRISTINA on the air, I am rebroadcasting our first show, an interview with talented dance photographer, and former ABT ballerina, Rosalie O'Connor.
Rosalie talked about her transformation from a ballerina on stage with American Ballet Theatre,to the dance photographer taking photos from the wings. The show includes some of her wonderful photographs accompanied by her explanation of when, where and how they were taken.In the intervening years since this broadcast, Rosalie provided dance photographs that illustrated my book, "The Dancer's Book of Ballet Crafts."  Her contribution to this book was enormous.


This program airs on Tuesday September 26th at 9pm and Thursday September 28th at 5:30pm on ALTICE-USA Channel 88 CT and repeats on subsequent Tuesdays and Thursdays at those times through out October.
