Oklahoma's five American Indian ballet performers would all debut with the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo: Hightower appeared in 1938, Maria Tallchief in 1942, Chouteau in 1943, Marjorie Tallchief in 1946 and Larkin in 1948.
Suzanne Tate, official chief of the Oklahoma Arts Council, said Oklahomans should invest wholeheartedly in the marvel of their commitment " a contribution that was felt both on, and off, center stage".
"During the 1940s and '50s, the ballerinas made the leap from small towns in Oklahoma to capturing the rapt attention of dance lovers worldwide. As children, they were surrounded by native dance, yet they were trained in classical ballet. Each rose to fame as prima ballerinas of the Ballet Russe," Tate said.
