Frederick Ashton
Sir Frederick William Mallandaine Ashton is an English ballet dancer and choreographer. He has also directed and choreographed for opera, movies and magazines. Determined to become a dancer, despite the opposition of the usual bourgeois family, Ashton was accepted by Léonide Massine and later Marie Rambert as a pupil. In 1926, Rambert encouraged him to try out choreography, and if he continued to dance professionally and successfully, then as a choreographer he would have become famous. Ashton was the main choreographer for Ninette de Valois, from 1935 until she retired in 1963, in successive companies known as Vic-Wells Ballet, Sadler's Wells Ballet and Royal Ballet. He succeeded de Valois as director of the company until he retired in 1970. Ashton is widely recognized as the creator of a unique British ballet genre.
