Surnames: Ivan and Margit Olsen Tarasoff
Want info on parents of Ivan Tarasoff who came to New York City as the Ballet Master for the New York Ballet Company in about 1911. He met Margit Olsen, a young aspiring ballarina in the Norwegian company when he was working in Norway. She followed him to New York where they were married. While still a young man, before the Marxist Movement took over Russia, Ivan, who had been trained in ballet, went to Paris and started his career. He became a very well-known figure in the ballet world and knew Nijinsky personally. If you know this family, I would appreciate a reply. Thanks!
