ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On episode 113 I sat down with my friend Lindsay Fisher Viatori. I have followed her journey since high school, so this is a wild PART I, sharing her knowledge, her inspiration and her hindsight. It truly is so very special and you must tune in for PART II next week.
After earning her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts and later an MFA in Choreography from the University of Iowa, Lindsay built an impressive professional career in New York City. She performed with numerous contemporary dance companies, appeared in productions including West Side Story and Victor/Victoria, danced in Julie Taymor's film Across the Universe, choreographed works presented in New York and beyond, and has collaborated with some of the most respected artists in the dance world.
Today, she's helping shape the next generation of dancers through her teaching at Slippery Rock University, where she's also co-founder of the FORGE Summer Dance Intensive. But what brings her here today isn't just her remarkable résumé, it's the legacy behind it. Lindsay recently established a scholarship honoring her late parents, whose unwavering belief and sacrifice made her own journey possible.
This is my conversation with Lindsay Fisher Viatori. Tune in next week for Part II where Lindsay gets deeply personal about the loss of her parents, how they continue to support and inspire her, and the ability to keep their memory alive in the most amazing way. Tune in November 13th for Part II.
