There is another interview by Michael Langlois with Charles France that's been published in the Fall 2006 issue of
Ballet Review. There's a note to say, "Michael Langlois' complete interview has been edited to eliminate some of the overlap between it and Laura Leivick's conversation with Charles France published in our summer issue."
A snippet, in answer to "What were your responsibilities [as Baryshnikov's assistant at ABT]":
QUOTE
What caused some people to misinterpret my role was that Misha was completely terrified about speaking to the dancers he suspected were going to make trouble. He would talk to people he thought were reasonable, but sometimes his antennae were quivering away so he'd ask me to speak to the others. In many instances what these dancers wanted were things he and I had already discussed, so I would usually say, "Misha and I have spoken about this and he's just not going to change his mind. If you still disagree I think the best thing you can do is make an appointment with him yourself."
Strangely enough, they rarely did. My theory was that some dancers would rather hear no from me than from Misha. Sometimes they would then come back to me and say, well, what about this, or what about that, and I would say, "I'll ask" or "You'll have to see him about that."
