I want to be happy, to look back and feel I danced well at the end of my career and didn't dwindle off. It would be too sad. Patricia McBride backcareerdance Change image and share on social
I have such respect for... the Kennedy Center Honors. To be an artist in America and to be honored for it is extraordinary. In Europe, they really honor their artists. And you are on a very high level. And here it's not as revered as it is in Europe or Russia or anywhere in the world. Patricia McBride americaartistcenter share on social
I felt that Balanchine was my father towards me. He was the person I most admired and looked up to. Patricia McBride admirebalanchinefather Change image and share on social
I am just so thankful that my mom was a fantastic mom. She wasn't a stage mother; she didn't push me. She was happy if I was happy. We are so different. I was very shy; my mom did all the talking. She was my strength. She never expected that I would be this ballerina. Patricia McBride ballerinaexpectfantastic share on social
Conrad Ludlow was an extraordinary partner... We just called him the greatest partner because he just knew what a woman's balance was. Patricia McBride balancecallconrad Change image and share on social
