Houghton Mifflin. $19.95.
As a choreographer, Agnes de Mille helped change the face of the

"Oklahoma," "Carousel" and "Brigadoon." She also injected a touch of
the American realist tradition into the ballet world with such works
as "Rodeo" and "Fall River Legend."
The most distinguishing characteristic of de Mille's work in
dance has always been her sublime gift for creating psychologically
rich characters through the use of keenly observed and distilled
gestures. And it is this same ...
