The Swans of Harlem is the forgotten story of a pioneering group of five Black ballerinas: Lydia Abarça, Gayle McKinney-Griffith, Sheila Rohan, Karlya Shelton and Marcia Sells, and their fifty-year sisterhood. Karen Valby, the author of The Swans of Harlem, and Lydia Abarca, a prima ballerina and one of the Swans, are in conversation with Elizabeth Howard to talk about their success on the stage, and the challenges they faced. Arthur Mitchell, the founder of The Dance Theater of Harlem, gave them the opportunity to perform. Their legacy had been erased. Until now.
