No dancer is rejected for being to tall, too short, too long-torsoed, too bony, or too fat.
On September 14, 1927, dancer Isadora Duncan is strangled in Nice, France, when the enormous silk scarf she is wearing gets tangled in the rear hubcaps of her open car.
The adoption process was never verified, but all six of Isadora's dancers did change their last name to Duncan.
Had she lived longer, Isadora may have rejected the communist philosophy altogether.
While her schools in Europe did not last long, Duncan's work had an impact on the art and her style is still danced based upon the instruction of Maria-Theresa Duncan, Anna Duncan, and Irma Duncan, three of her six adopted daughters.
The dancer was pronounced dead by the time she arrived at the hospital.
