## Biography

Ann Reinking was an American dancer, actress, choreographer and singer. She began ballet training as a child in Seattle and moved to New York at 18, joining the Radio City Music Hall corps de ballet. Her Broadway debut came in the ensemble of *Cabaret* (1969).

Reinking became closely associated with choreographer Bob Fosse, appearing in *Pippin* (1972), replacing Gwen Verdon as Roxie Hart in *Chicago* (1977) and starring in *Dancin'* (1978). On screen she played Kate Jagger in Fosse’s *All That Jazz* (1979), Grace Farrell in *Annie* (1982) and Micki Salinger in *Micki & Maude* (1984). She later choreographed and reprised Roxie Hart in the 1996 Broadway revival of *Chicago*, winning the Tony Award for Best Choreography, and received the Olivier Award for choreographing *Fosse* in the West End.
