Robin Hoffman, 32, a dance notator who records choreography for the Paul Taylor Dance Company in New York City, knows the importance of timing.

She needed it to keep up in her field, since computers are slowly replacing graph paper and pencil for dance notation. "I couldn't even imagine five or six years ago taking a course like this," Hoffman says. "But this way I could learn a lot in a short period of time while still keeping...
...Silverman disappeared first. A former dancer with Radio City Music Hall's Corps de Ballet, she was last seen walking through her home in a nightgown one morning last week.

"On the album we have Vanessa and Chayanne both singing in Spanish and English," says Tammy Lester, the sound track's associate producer. "Hopefully, this will bring a whole...
...white checked shirt that bring to mind a picture of Marilyn Monroe. There's Monica in a smoky black dress and Monica in a full-throated laugh. And there's Monica making eyes at the reader from behind a raft of pink feathers channeling the fan dancer Sally Rand--a young woman teasing the world with the prospect that one of these days, she's gonna let it all show...
