Never saw him dance, though I have seen two of his children (Christopher and Charlotte d'Amboise). Quite a lot of talent in that family!
And speaking of talent, what says Datalounge about the bulge in the obit pic?
I can't see the bulge because it's behind a pay wall.

You need to get out more Granda. My five year old niece packs a bigger lunch.

He ran a nonprofit that provided dance lessons for thousands of poor kids each year.

Was he really straight??? (wife and children aside). I feel when I've seen him interviewed he seemed like a big ole queen.

R10 Is that from the actual movie Carousel?
How can they insert that unrealistic dance sequence into the rest of the movie?

He was a really, really good guy.

He played Ephraim in the MGM movie "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers".
That's him in the green shirt as one of the brothers in the barn raising dance.

Saw him dance with the NYCB many times over the years and never knew his real name was Joe Ahearn!

I used to see him at a local restaurant here, always very nice. RIP
