As a small child she was dazzled by a television special on daredevils, including a woman who did ballet moves while standing on the top wing of a biplane. While she never danced on an airplane wing, she did fly by wire across the stage in an off Broadway production of Peter Pan’s Sister’s Friend. She loved the role so much that she wears her fancy wings regularly, even when they get in her way while working as a land surveyor.
