1. I performed onstage at the 1992 KCH, as my boss the choreographer Paul Taylor received his.

It was wonderful…especially meeting other honorees and (backstage) the artists paying tribute to them.

The 1992 Honorees:
Lionel Hampton: Jazz vibraphonist.
Paul Newman & Joanne Woodward: Acclaimed actors.
Ginger Rogers: Legendary dancer and actress.
Mstislav Rostropovich: Cellist and conductor.
Paul Taylor: Modern dance choreographer.

Our company (Paul Taylor Dance Company) performed at the Kennedy Center almost every year, for decades. Those were some times! Loved being in that complex, every trip.

Thanks for the thread
