Svetlana Dvoretsky and Endangered Species

endangered species: She belongs to an endangered species, the impresario, a word she didnt even know when growing up in St. Petersburg, according to The Star. She did not want to be a cog in an administrative wheel, however, and the capitalist world of the West naturally beckoned. Her dream? New York and Russia and Canada are not on the best of terms these days, but you wouldnt know it from the work of Svetlana Dvoretsky, who has spent the past decade bringing some of the finest artists from her homeland to the stages of her adopted country. The daughter of a doctor father and pianist mother, she studied piano from childhood, but what really fascinated her was the management and presentation of artists, a field known in Soviet days simply as artistic administration.
