    In her tale of a dancera??s life in 1940s America, Underwood reveals both the rapture she felt in dancing and her refreshingly spunky approach to a career. Over the decade, this young womana??experiencing a wide range of performing styles and training techniquesa??matured and developed as an artist and a person. Her reminiscences, written in the vivid prose style she cultivated in her mature years as a dance critic in Burlington, Vermont (where for decades she also performed, choreographed, and ran a company), she provides an illuminating view of theater and dance during the war and the immediate postwar years.
