Hi, I'm Lori Barber, and I grew up in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania.
I started dancing at the age of three.
To be able to tell a story through dance is just amazing.
I mean, you can hear in her vocals the angst.
And just for me to try and portray that and take that
vocal and just put it into my body and try and bring that to
a more visual place, I think everybody does have a very
physical reaction to anything that they go through in their
life that is that strong and that emotional.
You wear all these different hats.
And that gets tiring, so just remember always what started
this love for you.
And just stay connected to that.
That's what helps me, and there's nothing else in the
world I would rather do.
And that's what keeps me going day to day and trying new
projects and doing new things, is just always
remembering that joy.
And I still have it today.
And I think that's a pretty amazing thing to carry with
you all these years.
