I always thought she was so pretty. Very sad to hear the news but a peaceful way to go. Rest in peace, Ann.

I was thinking the same thing-that's the way to go. I also thought she was beautiful.

So sorry to hear this. She was a real beauty and so talented. I do love that quote. It is a keeper, and will be added to my journal.

Sad news. Ann Reinking was a superb dancer and a great talent. She passed at a young age and certainly left her mark in the entertainment world. Maybe she be at peace with God.

Oh, my goodness! I had not heard that. So sad. I wonder what happened to her??? She was so beautiful and talented. I admire so much people who have such great dancing ability and grace. She was truly one of a kind.

She was a long time paramour to Bob Fosse and his protege when he and Gwen Verdon had drifted apart. She began her career with a small role on Broadway in Fosse's Pippin in 1972 as a dancer. I remember she did a guest spot on Cosby where she was married to Robert Culp on the episode.

I only just heard she passed away today, I think she died over the weekend. She was a great talent, may she rest in peace.

Awww. I did not even know this. I always loved the sleek and sultry glam of Bob Fosse's choreography and her contributions to his later-era career; from when I saw the PBS version of the 2001 musical she'd co-directed about him (obviously, ten-times more classy than that completely weird '70s movie "All That Jazz"). There's a woman that was one of her protegés, by the name of Dana Moore (also from that show), whom is a wonderfully talented veteran dancer much in the same vein I'm sure will keep Ms. Reinking's legacy alive to future Dance students.
