Dancing in the streets: Williams keeps DBDT in step

By Shari Goldstein Stern shari@katytrailweekly.com

When the City of Dallas names a street after you, you know you’ve arrived. The namesake of Ann Williams Way in the downtown Dallas Arts District was honored with the gesture in 2014, and today she recalls the honor as “Just peachy!” She is the artist and businesswoman who set out 40 years ago to give young African American dancers a stage and to teach the community’s children to dance.

Ms. Williams founded the Dallas Black Dance Theatre (DBDT) and Academy in 1976, and later added DBDT II. Only someone with this city leader’s humility could resist, after receiving such an honor, doing a happy dance on the roof of the former Moorland YMCA, now

DBDT’s home.

“I am proud that we have a home in the Arts District; a state of the art historic building that was once the hub of African American activities and is now owned by DBDT, housing our academy, administration and rehearsal space for both companies,” the artist shared. What the modest but tenacious Ms. Williams won’t tell you is that in reality, the Moorland building was procured after she successfully launched a long, tedious campaign, engaging all involved parties throughout a dreadfully long time to make it happen.

This summer, Ms. Williams was recognized with the Ernie Award at the 2016 Dance/USA Annual Conference in Austin, the country’s broadest gathering of dance professionals. “I am

Dallas City Council member Philip T. Kingston presents Ann Williams with a street sign at a dedication ceremony when a section of Flora street was renamed Ann Williams Way in 2014. humbled to receive this award from Dance/USA,” said Ms. Williams. “It's heartwarming to be selected by your peers.”

The Ernie is awarded to an individual whose accomplishments have dramatically empowered artists and supported their creativity. Against

all odds, this talented dancer pioneered a unique opportunity for African American dancers in Dallas. She evolved way ahead of her time in the mid-70s.

A self-proclaimed “picky” eater, she wouldn’t put anything on your plate that she wouldn’t put on her own.

“I grew up cooking,” Ball said, a warm smile beaming through her eponymous brunette curls. Raised between Louisiana and East Texas, Ball learned to prepare meals on a budget, which ultimately led to an obsession with the right ingredients and a genuine enjoyment of the cooking process. Finally settling in Dallas in 2008 after college in Chicago, she has slowly but surely turned her passion into a fledgling business, sharing her love of cooking with an appreciative — and hungry — following.

Ball and her small kitchen staff work long hours, often waking before dawn to

Emanating from her booth, the irresistible aromas — somewhere between rustic European bakery and grandma’s kitchen — draw hungry market-goers by the swarm. Latecomers may be disappointed to find that the quiche usually sells out by noon. And with a crust so flaky, it’s no wonder. Julia Child would be proud.

LIFE ON THE TRAIL

It takes teamwork to finish first

By Dr. Beth Leermakers bethleermakersphd.com

The men’s and women’s Olympic cycling road races highlighted the importance of teamwork. In both races, the lone leader (with a few kilometers to Dr. Leermakers go) was overtaken by a group of two or three cyclists working together. The overtaken male finished third and the woman finished fourth.

While those are very impressive results for a long, grueling race over a challenging course that resulted in several crashes, finishing third or fourth isn’t the same as winning that coveted gold.

In cycling, working together (“drafting”) is critical to reduce wind resistance.

Cyclists take turns “pulling” — being at the front of — the pace line of cyclists.

Back in my casual cycling days, my turns at pulling were very short because, being small, I didn’t block enough wind. I certainly took advantage of the wind protection provided by the bigger folks in front of me.

The Olympic cyclists who worked together weren’t on the same team or even from the same country. They ran the risk of losing to one of the people in their small pace line. Yet, apparently, they realized that they had a better chance of winning a medal by cooperating than by trying to go the distance alone. Indeed, the lone leaders were too tired at the end of the race to sustain their lead.

I often hear my clients say they’re reluctant to ask for help with work or home projects. Their reasons vary but often focus on fears that the other person won’t do it the right way (aka “their way”) or that it will take longer to explain how to complete the task the right way than it would to do it themselves. I’m sometimes reluctant to ask other people for help because I’m worried I won’t be able to depend on them.

I recently had a negative experience with teamwork regarding a dog transport.

Two of my foster dogs were supposed to travel to their rescue group in Wisconsin.

Two days before the transport, I learned that the transporter hadn’t picked up 40 dogs that were supposed to travel from Texas to Minnesota on another run.

Getting nervous, I tried to reach the woman to ask whether my dogs (whom I was fostering at her request) were indeed going to leave as scheduled. I was counting on them going so I’d have room for a

new foster dog who was temporarily in boarding (at my expense). I never heard back from the transporter. The next week a rescue friend told me that someone was organizing a make-up transport that week.

The transporter herself never contacted me to apologize or tell me she’d be taking the dogs the following week. Luckily, my dogs finally left a week later than planned. In this case, I couldn’t have driven the dogs to Wisconsin myself. With five other dogs at home, heading out on an impromptu 18-hour (one way) road trip isn’t feasible.

I had to depend on other people to deliver my foster dogs.

If you’re reluctant to take advantage of teamwork, ask yourself these questions …

What’s the worst thing that could happen?

• If the task weren’t done your way, would it still get completed? Is it possible that another approach may also work (perish the thought)? What’s it costing you to insist that things be done your way every time?

• If someone on your team dropped the ball. Would the mistake lead to loss of life or limb? The delayed transport was inconvenient and stressful, but the dogs and I were safe.

Does the potential benefit of teamwork outweigh the risk of someone letting you down? Unfortunately, there isn’t any way to guarantee that someone won’t drop the ball. Therefore you may have to take a calculated leap of faith, considering your previous experience with the people involved. I hadn’t ever worked with this transporter, so I didn’t have anything to go on. Saving two dogs who otherwise would have died in the shelter was worth the stress and inconvenience of dealing with undependable people who didn’t communicate. I learned my lesson and won’t foster or transport dogs with that person again.

Could it be worth spending time teaching someone else how to complete a project? If you only perform a task once a year, it may make more sense to do it yourself. However, if it’s something you deal with every week or month, you will probably save time in the long run even if you initially spend more time training someone.

As you consider joining or forming a team, ask yourself whether you want to go for the gold or get left behind in the dust.

“Hi, this is Julie.

Congratulations! You have just won a free trip to the Bahamas!”

“This is an important message about the status of David Mullen your credit card account.” “Stop what you are doing right now and listen!” No, you stop and listen. I blame the government and the phone companies for allowing the infiltration of these scam artists phone calls.

I am on the “no call list” on my cell phone and landline, but that apparently doesn’t apply or exist anymore. I know I am still the only American left with a landline, but now my cell phone is targeted by these recorded calls.

I block their calls every time and I still get calls from another number or another state. How these scam artists are allowed to continue is baffling to me. The phone companies are issuing private phone numbers to these hacks and they have to know what these companies are doing.

Yet they continue to issue them phone numbers. And the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) — monitors of all things airwave — couldn't apparently care less. I contacted the FCC and — instead of the seven-second delay they are famous for instituting on live television and radio — I am currently on a six-day delay and counting …

Bravo to Ralph Strangis and his team presenting “Hospitality Suite” at Gilley’s South Side Music Hall at 1135 S. Lamar St.

He is amazing in this four-man, dialogue intensive show. They reconfigured the music hall into an intimate theater reminiscent of Off-Broadway. You can still catch it this weekend for about $20 a ticket. Really well done … Tales of the hazardous waste recycling center — Part Deux.

Last column I explained playing “eco guy” and dropping off old paint cans and a couple of security alarm batteries at the Dallas County hazardous waste recycling center at 11234 Plano Road, only to have them forget to take the used batteries out of my car. So I returned for a second visit, hoping that they would take the batteries this time. They did, but I got an odd comment from the worker at the recycling center. “You have a Lexus CT Sport, and you bought a hybrid?

Why would you do that?” the employee of the recycling center asked. A man no doubt dedicated to the betterment of the environment. “Because I get 42 miles per gallon on regular gas and it is good for the, um, environment,” I said. “Oh, whatever,” he said. The future head of the Environmental Protection Agency works at the Dallas/Garland border …

Eastbound and Down on 3826 Ross Ave. is starting to grow on me. It has easy parking, a unique beer and cider selection (booze, too) and friendly people.

Great back area and dog friendly (please, keep them away from me). True to the name, the interior is loosely themed on the film “Smokey and the Bandit” with a picture of Burt Reynolds on the men’s room door and of Sally Field on the woman’s room door.

They will have food soon, when the city will let them … I think

that everyone around lower Ross Avenue is anxiously awaiting the opening of Little Woodrow’s out of Austin. So are the owners, also being slow played on final permits from the city. Little Woodrow’s may be the first bar built for Uber or Lyft because I have no idea where people are going to park ... Revisited Ships Tavern on lowest Greenville Avenue during the weekend.

Never one of my favorites in the past, the recent upgrades hit me like a breeze at my back. They have a new upstairs seating area, now have liquor (was beer only) and my bartender friend Billy was behind the wood … Stumbled upon (not what you are thinking) two one-year anniversary parties this weekend, which can be quite a milestone for a Dallas bar and/ or restaurant these days. Frankie’s Downtown at 1302 Main St. is much better than the old McKinney Avenue location. Plus, you feel like you are downtown, because you are. Only cost $4 to park in a lot on a Friday night.

Then on Saturday night, I went to the first anniversary of Charlie Papaceno’s Industry Bar at 1711 S. Lamar St. Fun joint and part of the Cedars area revolution … Challenged by my publisher to find quality late night dining, I continue my occasional series.

Longing for a burger, I went to Lakewood Landing at 5818 Live Oak St. and found a chicken and waffles special. What a deal!

Dinner and breakfast at the same time. I can sleep in the next day.

And I finally tried DaLat on 2537 N. Fitzhugh Ave. Full bar and tasty Vietnamese-influenced cuisine that is welcomed if you are not Pho of something else. Open until 2 a.m.

What is the cause of arthritis?

By Dr. Don Hohman dhohman@gdortho.com

One of the most common questions I am asked in the office daily is what causes chronic knee pain? The most common cause of chronic knee pain Dr. Don Hohman and disability is arthritis.

There are many factors which may play a role leading to arthritis such as individual genetics or metabolic factors, such as diabetes. Although there are many types of arthritis, most knee pain is caused by just three types: osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis.

Osteoarthritis. This is an age-related "wear and tear" type of arthritis. It usually occurs in people 50 years of age and older, but may occur in younger people, too. The cartilage that cushions the bones of the knee softens and wears away. The bones then rub against one another, causing knee

pain and stiffness.

Rheumatoid arthritis. This is a disease in which the synovial membrane that surrounds the joint becomes inflamed and thickened. This chronic inflammation can damage the cartilage and eventually cause cartilage loss, pain, and stiffness. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most common form of a group of disorders termed "inflammatory arthritis."

Post-traumatic arthritis. This can follow a serious knee injury. Fractures of the bones surrounding the knee or tears of the knee ligaments may damage the articular cartilage over time, causing knee pain and limiting knee function.

Donald Hohman, MD, is a fellowship-trained Orthopaedic Surgeon specializing in joint replacements of the hip and knee. He completed his specialty training at the Brigham and Women’s Hospital of the Harvard Medical School-Boston, Mass.

CONNECTING POINT PARK CITIES

Providing an excellent all-inclusive day program for adults with disabilities

By Sally Blanton

sallyblanton455@gmail.com Each week, Katy Trail Weekly will feature a charity that is doing remarkable work in Dallas, a city known for philanthropy and generosity.

QW hat is your mission or highest purpose?

A O ur mission is to provide an all-inclusive

day program for adults with disabilities.

Connecting Point Park Cities (CPPC) offers a wide range of educational, vocational, social and recreational services.

CPPC’s highest purpose is to include all disability levels into our program by providing an individualized plan for each teammate.

QW hat are your critical needs now,

besides money donations?

CPPC has a great partnership with Central Christian Church, and since opening our doors there in 2014, the number of teammates we serve has continued to grow. We knew this program was needed in our community, and as we continue to receive applications, space proves to be the biggest issue. Our goal is to have a very strong and large number of volunteers who are able to find a program that they are passionate about and foster positive relationships with CPPC and our teammates.

A

QW hat is your facility like?

A CPPC is located at Central Christian

Church nestled in a quiet neighborhood off of Mockingbird Lane and Lemmon Avenue. Our room is a bright and welcoming environment that brings structure and cheer to our teammates!

QW hat sort of volunteer jobs are available?

A Program Volunteer: This volunteer oppor-

tunity is for someone who wants to spend either the entire day or a half day with us at Connecting Point. This would include daily living skills training, arts and crafts, brain

building, social/safety skills and exercise.

Two-Hour Activity Volunteer: This volunteer opportunity is for someone who might have a special skill that they want to provide on a weekly or monthly basis. For example: canvas paintings, music instruction or sports instruction.

Q Who is recognized as a dedicated volunteer?

A Cheryl Kemp is CPPC’s first volunteer

and has been with us since August. She comes once a week and provides a music class for our teammates, which gets them up and moving while having fun! She even provides her own musical instruments including drums, tambourines, maracas, etc. Cheryl gets everyone involved no matter the disability, and she sure knows how to get our dancing feet going!.

QW hat do you think is the most important thing you do for the community?

A We provide a safe place for families and

loved ones each day that teaches them independence and fosters lifelong friendships. That is CPPC’s way of giving back.

Since our opening day, many teammates have made steps toward independence and self-confidence, and it has been incredible to watch.

QW hat is difficult about your job?

at there aren’t enough funds and space A Th to have everyone enrolled in our program that desires to attend!

QW hat is rewarding about your job?

A E verything! It’s like Walt Disney said

himself, “It’s fun to do the impossible.”

That is exactly what it is like for everyone who comes to work at CPPC! Simply knowing CPPC is the place that our teammates look forward to coming to each day makes everything worth it in the end.

Jamie Reynolds answered this week’s questions.

The universal question that “The Male Intellect: An Oxymoron?” sets out to answer is, can “male” and “intellect” coexist in the same sentence? Actor, standup comic and writer, Robert Dubac sets out to solve the puzzle at the Charles W. Eisemann Center Friday, Aug. 26 at 8 p.m. and Saturday Aug. 27 at 2 and 8 p.m.

Dubac’s name may not come up in your daily conversations, but when you see his face you’re bound to say something like, “Oh! I love him! He’s hysterical!” or “Oh, yeah. That guy. I’ve seen him a million times!” Some of those million times may have included television series like “Loving,” “Life Goes On,” “Growing Pains” and “Diff’rent Strokes” among others.

DOTTY'S TRUE TEXAS CUISINE

Solid lunch specials at Oak

By Dotty Griffith

dotty.griffith@yahoo.com Lunch specials sometimes aren’t so special. Not the case at Oak, where there’s an ongoing specials campaign. Sure, the upscale restaurant wants to emphasize that they’re open for lunch as well as dinner. To make an impression, they’re going against type, offering a $15 filet on Fridays and weekday “two courses for $20” enticements. That ought to give you something to talk about.

Thought has gone into these menus. The 6-ounce filet comes with combo fries — sweet and white potato — an arugula salad and a couple of sauces, horseradish cream and housemade O16 steak sauce.

The 2 for $20 menu known as the Power Lunch has mixand-match options. Start with your choice of a Caesar or field green salad, soup du jour or hummus. Then select from a smoked chicken club sandwich, the Oak Burger, street tacos (filling changes daily), penne pasta with housemade Italian sausage and grilled, threecheese sandwich with tomato soup.

able to be repurposed saved money and the environment.

But what will happen to the Olympic Village? Surely it can become housing for the thousands in need in Rio? In their bid for the 2016 Olympics, Rio promised to clean up Guanabara Bay, infamous for its pollution. As the games got closer, budget restraints cut their cleanup efforts far short. Still, the estimated amount spent on the Olympics in Rio was $12 billion! An American sailor who did not qualify to compete took matters into his own hands and started cleaning up the bay on his own. Brad Funk spent his own money to hire a local boat guide to help him physically pick up trash out of the bay. If one guy can make a difference, so can all of us.

Someone sent me a photo of

the Guanabara Bay covered in a disgusting amount of trash ­— honestly, it instantly reminded me of some of the lakes near Dallas. It’s easy to point the finger at someone else, but our own home needs major clean up as well.

Dallas City Hall may pass a ban that could help keep our waterways clean. In their recent committee meeting, the Quality of Life and Environment Committee in Dallas voted to send to Dallas’ full council a proposed ordinance banning smoking in all public parks. This is great news for local health and the environment! According to cigarettelitter.org, more than 4.5 trillion cigarettes are littered worldwide each year, making them the most littered item in the world. If one small cigarette butt can leach deadly

chemicals into our water systems, imagine what thousands do. The less smoking in public places, the less toxic cigarette butt litter.

The CDC found that smoking bans also decrease the sheer number of smokers, which is at an all-time low.

From the CDC: “Studies have shown that the implementation of smoke-free laws and policies can increase cessation and reduce smoking prevalence among workers and the general population and may also reduce smoking initiation among youth.” And our children need non-smoking role models, especially now as they head back to the school grounds, home of peer pressure galore.

Back-to-school photos are all over social media, and the start of a new school

year is often a kick start to a healthy lifestyle similar to a New Year’s resolution. I love seeing the healthy lunches packed for kids, students jumping on buses or riding their bikes and motivated parents hitting the gym as everyone gets back into a school routine. Let’s not lose this motivation. Don’t let your healthy intentions succumb to quick ease that’s bad for your kids’ health, your health and the environment. Children need adults to set the tone and follow through every week. Keep posting your photos on social media for everyone else to see, too — the healthy and environmental revolution needs you and your cute photos!

TRAIL TO GOOD HEALTH

‘Greasing the Groove’ can become the norm

By Megan Lyons

megan@thelyonsshare.org I am all about finding ways to make my own healthy habits less of a production and more of an everyday “norm.” If I (or my clients) don’t have to think about doing something Megan Lyons because it is so engrained in my regular routine, I don’t even need to rely on my willpower to get it done. There may be no such thing as “better results in no time,” but how about “better results in less added time?” “Greasing the Groove” is one way to do just that — fit exercise into your life (and get the results you want from it) without dedicating an extra hour every day to the gym.

Before you get too excited, let me caveat by saying that I still believe almost everyone should be carving out time for dedicated exercise sessions. We have time for what we prioritize, and so often the problem is that people prioritize other things instead of their own health. Still, “Greasing the Groove” is a great way to fit in additional movement on days when you are already exercising or get

I encourage you to start with just one or two, so that you actually remember them and they don’t put an undue burden on your day.

Be sure to adjust the number of reps to accommodate your own strength level. Have fun, and enjoy getting stronger and leaner without much extra time!

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Great tips for seasoned tailgaters Tailgating season is here, and while you may want to refer to last year’s playbook, new tools and tips can help make this your best season yet.

Stay comfortable. There are a few simple things you can do to make comfort and safety a priority while tailgating. Number one is to pack plenty of water in order to keep everyone hydrated.

Whether you use an umbrella, a pop-up tent or simply arrive early to seek out a leafy corner of the lot, make sure your space includes some shade. And don’t forget the sunscreen. Be sure to check the weather report and prepare ahead with the right gear and clothing.

Lastly, it may not be the most fun item on your game day packing checklist, but it could be the most important. Always bring along a first aid kit that includes all the basics. It’s always better to be too prepared.

Keep food fresh. Don’t let your party foods fall victim to common tailgating woes. Even in an icy cooler, go-to, crowd-pleasing dips can be particularly susceptible to browning and drying out after a few hours. Prevent the degradation of guacamole and other dips by storing them in smart individual containers designed to keep foods fresh.

For example, the new Guac-Lock from Casabella works differently from standard food storage containers. Made from shatterproof, odor-proof and stain-resistant plastic, the container locks in place and allows users to squeeze out excess air. It’s great for entertaining too, as it features a push-up mechanism that keeps the container looking full and comes with an optional chip tray.

Ambitious tailgaters can now make their dips ahead of time, without worrying that the look and flavor of their creations will fade over time.

Make noise. If stadium rules permit, consider bringing along a wireless speaker system to pump up your favorite jams.

Ensure your system is compatible with your phone’s technology. Waterproof options exist and are always a great bet for all kinds of weather. Create a playlist in advance that will get you and your Photo courtesy of State Point friends ready for the game. It may be helpful to make friends with your tailgat- Making guacamole?

With a few simple suggestions, you can make your next tailgating party a great success.

begin the time-consuming process of preparing pastry crusts, pastas and breads from scratch. “I’m not a morning person at all,” laughs Ball, who nonetheless wakes up at 4:30 a.m. three to four times per week. Then, of course, there’s loading into the farmers market and serving food all day in the heat or cold, rain or shine — not to mention, the mounting challenges of running a small business and managing a growing number of clients and employees. “I almost don’t have a day off,” she admits.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) You'll spend some time tracking down those who can give you up-to-date information. Be prepared for a lengthy process.

(Sept. 8-Sept. 22) – You can have what you want, but you're going to have to be patient. All good things to those who wait!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) You will get closer than ever to someone who has been orbiting around you for some time.

There's more to it than you might think! (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) – Your curiosity may get the better of you, prompting you to pursue answers to questions not yet asked.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) You may have to put up something of a fight in order to have things work out to your liking. An adversary puts you through it! (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) – Your curiosity about someone's former life may send you on a journey in which you discover much about yourself.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) You may become ensnared by someone who uses his or her intelligence to lay effective traps.

Is this a bad thing? (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) – You'll have reason to count your blessings as the week draws to a close. Much will happen to bring you face to face with yourself.

The odd hours and hard work are worth it to Ball, however, who has been running the enterprise since December 2013.

After a divorce, leaving the corporate world for a change of pace, Ball rediscovered a love of food and community working at Lakewood’s former Legal Grounds and Oak Cliff’s Bolsa Mercado. Gaining experience in baking and menu-planning for local clients —Café Victoria in Victory Plaza is one beneficiary of her talents — Ball began catering small to medium-sized events on the side before taking the full-time plunge in 2015.

The company has seen success, and Ball has grown personally whilst navigating the world as a small business owner.

With her naturally modest and gentle demeanor, she has had to learn how to "be the boss," as she puts it, gaining confidence not only in her products, but also in selling them.

Among her most supportive of clients — and friends — is a group associated with Open Classical, an organization specializing in presenting classical music events in the Metroplex.

Director and founder, Mark Landson has worked with the Naturally Curly Cook on multiple (and envious) occasions, bringing the delights of her menu to audiences at intimate musical performances. Many members of the group regularly visit Ball's weekend booth at Good Local Markets to show their support and partake in a wholesome, delicious breakfast. "It really is a community effort," says Ball, grateful of the encouragement she has received from friends, family and loved ones.

Life isn’t all pie crusts and lasagna though. Beyond cooking and running a business, Ball shares her home with her dog Abner and partner Nikola Olic. “Nikola keeps me sane,” says Ball, “Words aren’t adequate to describe his support.” Though not as much of a cook as Ball — “He makes good crepes!” she says — he has variously shown his support as a business advisor, web designer, emotional pillar and, whenever possible, kolache server at the market stand.

Ultimately, Ball is putting her stamp on the catering and farmers market worlds, staying true to her commitment to healthful, flavorful and economical foods, and looking forward to the day when she has her very own storefront. If you haven’t already, you can try the Naturally Curly Cook’s culinary offerings at Good Local Markets, Saturdays at Lakeside Baptist Church off Garland Road or Sundays at Half Price Books on Northwest Highway. You can also find her kolaches, gluten-free breakfast bars and other pastries at Café Victoria, Murray Street Coffee and Serj Books. To learn more, visit naturallycurlycook.com or email kelly@naturallycurlycook.com.

YOUR STARS THIS WEEK The coming week will proceed very much according to plan for most people, and that should come as little surprise to those who have made firm schedules, established clear priorities and goals, and put in the requisite time preparing for what comes. There are some, however, for whom the week will be chock-full of surprises — both private and public. This is when one must accept the fact that honesty is the best policy — those who are willing to come clean can prevent much of the damage, or undo any that has been done, as a result of past lies or half-truths that may have been told when one's back was against the wall. Those who tell the truth, regardless of what they fear may result, can very likely avoid such results!

When it comes to personal relationships, the brave are sure to be rewarded — again, by coming clean, or by admitting affections that may have lain dormant and unacknowledged for some time.

Confessing one's love can send both parties into the stratosphere, and the resulting relationship can last a long time, indeed.

Eat up true Americana with diner stop

Outside of the famous Summit Diner located in Summit, N.J.

By Michael Wald

wald.world@yahoo.com If you haven’t eaten in a true “diner,” you’re missing out on one of the quintessential remnants of American history.

The largest number of remaining diners are spread through New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. In Texas, the closest thing to a diner is a Waffle House, Michael Wald whose design intentionally mimics that of the original diners, or a place like Oak Lawn’s Lucky’s, which is much larger and more upscale than any diner.

What makes diners special? They serve very large, sometimes greasy meals (main dish, side and drink) for around $10, and usually include classic American desserts on the menu — things like especially delicious homemade cheesecake, apple and blueberry pies — that you

cannot easily duplicate elsewhere. The food offerings have great variety, but you typically won’t find a paper menu. Rather the menu is posted on a board on the wall. Today (for some unknown reason) many diners are operated by Americans of Greek descent, so the menu and desserts include Greek specialties along with “New York” favorites.

To get the complete flavor of the American diner, I recently visited the Summit Diner in Summit, N.J., located a block from the railroad station (one hour from Manhattan) in a newly renovated downtown that retains its old-timey feel. The diner dates from 1929, the year the first diners were manufactured, making it among the oldest in America. Built in the typical style of the original diners, it resembles a stainless steel railroad car. In its day, this “new” concept provided an entrepreneurial restaurateur a pre-assembled food service business, all equipment included.

As you enter the diner you immediately see DINER on page 11

DANCING cont'd from page 1 Drew, DBDT executive director: “Dallas Black Dance Theatre has succeeded because of the vision of its founder. She started the organization to fulfill a need so that minority children in the 70s could learn to appreciate dance and pursue it as a career. Now the organization has become the 10th largest minority arts organization in America, touring across the country and around the globe. Ms. Williams never stopped dreaming bigger goals for Dallas Black Dance Theatre and pursuing it with excellence.”

The organization has earned an exceptional reputation, which Ms. Williams said attracts some of the nation’s most talented dancers coming to audition. “My dreams are coming true, with an organization that is well managed and providing ‘Artistic Excellence’ in its teaching and performances.” She gives credit to some of those who have helped make

her dreams come true: Alpha Kappa Alpha members Susie Bell, Avalyn Pace and Veronica Frazier; Link members Helen Giddings and Verna Mitchell. “I also appreciate community and civic leaders who believed in me, like the late Mary Bywaters, Annette Strauss, Ruth Altshuler and Margaret McDermott.”

According to Ms. Williams, the organization’s long tenure is directly tied to the inhouse expression of “Artistic Excellence.” She said, “We stress this with our teachers, dancers, staff, parents and the entire organization.”

DBDT’s annual performances and outreach activities have grown from 30 to more than 600 events. To date, the dance company has toured five continents, 15 countries and 31 states, along with performing at two Olympics.

Audiences have increased from 20,000 to 150,000 patrons annually.

An estimated 20,000 dancers and students have been touched by DBDT during its 40-year

Ann Williams founded Dallas Black Dance Theatre to fill the need to give minority dancers the opportunity to hone their craft. history. The oldest former dancer is Edward Morgan, who went on to the Joffrey Ballet after DBDT. Today he has his own dance company in New York.

A few other former DBDT dancers who have made successful careers in dance are Jamal Story, a choreographer who has performed with Cher, Madonna and in many Broadway productions. Bravita Threatt is currently appearing in “The Lion King” on Broadway. Christopher McKenzie, Jr. is with “The Lion King” at Disneyworld. Michael Jackson, Jr. is with Alvin Ailey Dance Company.

Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings said, “Ann is one of the premier heroes in Dallas because she believes in excellence in everything she does.

She holds herself and her dancers to a high degree of professionalism. She’s given her life to this for so long that she has significantly raised the art form of dance in Dallas and particularly in the minority community.

“Ann has been a mentor to many young men and women and really changed their lives,” he added. “They understand what fine arts is all about. Her tenacity in creating a home for DBDT in the historically significant Moorland YMCA building, including her own fund raising effort, resulted in a first-class addition to the arts community and all the way toward Deep Ellum. On behalf of the city and the citizens of Dallas, I want to thank Ann for all you have done to make Dallas a better city.”

A few more of Ms. Williams’ colleagues and friends shared some thoughts about her Ernie Award and DBDT’s 40th anniversary. Ted Munselle, 2016 Dallas Summer Musicals Board Chair, said: “On behalf of Dallas Summer Musicals, I extend our congratulations to Ann Williams for receiving the

prestigious Ernie Award and for Dallas Black Dance Theatre’s celebration of their 40th anniversary. We are fortunate to have Ann as a performing arts advocate in Dallas, who through her dedication and contribution inspires us to continue to enrich the lives of others through their craft. Our thanks to her for all that she does for the arts and our community.”

Craig Holcomb, president, Friends of Fair Park and former Dallas City Councilman said, “Ann has always been a strong voice for the arts and for minority participation in the arts.

For years the DBDT has been an active part of the Dallas arts community and has worked so that all groups, large and small, in all areas — dance, drama, visual arts and music — had a place at the table.”

Holcomb continued, “I particularly respect Ann because Dallas is not a town with a lot of dance lovers. And yet she has persevered, creating a troupe that is perhaps better respected outside of Dallas than in Dallas.”

Michael A. Jenkins, president of LARC, Inc. and Starlight Entertainment said, “I have known Ann for more than 24 years. She is one of the most creative people that I have ever met. We have worked together on a number of events, shows, etc. She ‘sets the bar high’ and has always exceeded everyone’s expectations.”

Ms. Williams’ aspirations for DBDT’s future include performing at Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival in the Berkshires, American Dance Festival at Duke University and the Kennedy Center. As to her own future, she aspires to “playing bridge, enjoying luncheons with my girlfriends and, of course, family.”

As if still in post-depression America, no credit cards are taken — bring cash.

Diners here can always count on a piping hot cup of caffeine at any hour. If you haven’t been to one, go fetch a cup of java at the Summit Diner or one of the few other remaining classical diners in the Northeast and soak in a trip back in time that you won’t long forget.
