Graham Usher (dancer)
Graham Usher (1938–1975) was a ballet dancer with the Royal Ballet.
Usher appeared as a "castaway" on the BBC Radio programme Desert Island Discs on 16 May 1970.[1]
He died in 1975 aged just 37. Jeffery Taylor subsequently described him as:[2]
one of the sweetest, most gentle natured beings I have ever met [with] extravagantly arched feet, high arabesque and fluidly graceful arm movements.
