Photograph: Ballet dancer Tanaquil Le Clercq poses for Vogue magazine, by Gjon Mili (1951)
Tanaquil Le Clercq (b. Paris 1929, ++2000 Manhattan) was the Principal Dancer for the New York Ballet since 1948 until the companyâs tour in Europe in 1956, when Le Clercq contracted polio in Copenhagen. Although she recovered some movement to her torso and upper limbs, she was left paralyzed from the waist below, and became a ballet teacher using her arms and hands as legs and feet to teach the moves.
Bonus: turning that image upside down is quite unsettlingâŠ

She adapted, overcame, and found a way to to still be part of something that she enjoyed and loved.
That in all likelihood saved her life and gave purpose to what would otherwise have been a miserable existence.

For some âreason unknownâ the polio illness is making a comeback. The activists who are trying to eradicate such illnesses are facing quite the backlash. The saddest thing is that âeverybody is a gangsta until it happens to their loved onesâ and they donât donât care to provide an alternative solution. No innocent child should go through an ordeal such as that illness.

She should be OK. They have had big families and usually very closely connected to each other.
Other than that she will have support from Government.

Yioleâs photos of old times inspired me to post old photos as well, rather than only that red headed nymph.
The photo above is taken by Ara GĂŒler, the late Turkish-Armenian photographer in Ä°stanbul in 1950. The title is âKumpkapı fishermen returning to port in the first light of dawnâ.
Ara was known to be âThe Eye of Istanbulâ, but he took photographs at many other places and times as well during his 90 years on this planet. His photos might mean little more than pretty photography to many, but those who have lived in the old times and the places he took photos can just take a look at one of his photos and tell the entire story just from a single photograph.
