Talk:Gerald Arpino

Gerald Arpino studied with Ivan Novikoff
Gerald Arpino and Robert Joffrey were students of Ivan Novikoff in Seattle in the l940's. I was a student there too. We entertained servicemen during World War II, so I think we must have met during the last year or so of that war. This was before Gerald and Bobby studied with Mary Ann Wells, so the statement that they met at Wells' school is an error. But it was an error they allowed to stand, probably because of a disagreement with Novikoff.

Gerry and Bobby told the other students that they were cousins, so if this was true, they probably met in New York before they came to Seattle.

I knew them for years, and saw Bobby later in his life when he came to a Novikoff performance in Seattle, and I think his presence there indicated that he and Novikoff reconciled in the latter years of their lives.

Bobby's partner at Novikoff's was Joanne Kirberger, who married and died in childbirth in Seattle. We were kids together, and all of this is true, and I put it here for old time's sake.

Sexual Orientation
If he was inducted into the Chicago Gay/Lesbian Hall of Fame, can't the subject be placed under LGBT people from the United States or categories like that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:D:1500:571:F1D8:4057:3C9A:7D0A (talk) 02:30, 24 January 2015 (UTC)
