Vernon Ave. Columbus, OH 43215 Key: CF: Candace Feck SP: Sue Porter JD: Jane D’Angelo, Executive Director, Ohio Dance MDB: Megan Davis Bushway, VDC film team CF: When did your relationship with BalletMet actually begin? SP: I really had nothing to do with BalletMet before I was sitting in my office in a law firm, and one of my partners came in and said “They’re bringing in a new Artistic Director to the Ballet, my wife is on the Board, and they need some immigration work done. Could you help them?” I sort of thought about it — and when one of your partners in a law firm comes in, the answer is always “Yes” — you will figure out a way to do it. That actually is when I first met David Nixon, our third Artistic Director. I didn’t know much about dance, but I got to know him and his very special wife, Yoko Ichino. They were amazing people, and I was so interested in the art that they were creating, that we became friends. It wasn’t long after that that they asked me if I would be interested in coming on the Board. I was kind of hesitant — I was on a lot of boards around town, but had never been on an arts board before — and I thought… First I said no — and they pursued it — and I finally said yes.
