50 Years For an Oscar recounts the extraordinary life of Pat George Mitchell, a classical ballet teacher who truly blooms where she is planted in a small East Texas community. Follow her journey through the highs and lows and relive her experiences as she encounters the greats of the ballet world, teaches exceptional ballet students, and creates a one of a kind dance company that thrives in an unlikely place. It is filled with amazing memories, fabulous photos, and moving stories from a one of a kind woman doing the unexpected in an ordinary place.
"All the amazing qualities of Pat George Mitchell come out in these pages to follow. Hers is the story of an artist through and through. Reading it you can feel the passion, heartache, and uncompromising drive it takes to become a dancer. But Ms. Mitchell’s story is also of a teacher, a humanitarian and a deeply caring person.
Hers is a very American story – of triumph and sadness, of joy and focus, and of the love and commitment it takes to succeed no matter what our chosen endeavors may be. This is a human story, about a very wonderful human being." From the Forward by Adam Sklute.
