Morleigh Steinberg is an American choreographer and dancer with the production company Arcane Collective. She is the wife of the musician The Edge from the rock group U2. Raised in Los Angeles and schooled in modern dance, Steinberg became a formative member of the dancer-illusionist company MOMIX in 1983. They became known for their visual humour and contorted positions. In 1986, she co-founded the ISO dance company, which embodied an approach they called "serious fun" and sometimes collaborated with a singing group, and gave performances around the country and abroad. In both companies she did choreography as well as dancing. She staged her own experimental dance solo production and did choreographic work for films and music videos. Starting in the mid-1990s, she branched out into lighting design and film directing as well, with dance usually being the subject matter. She has continued with various projects into the 2010s, often collaborating with the Japanese choreographer and dancer Oguri. Together they are co-founders of the production company Arcane Collective. Steinberg became involved with U2 when she appeared in the 1987 music video for "With Or Without You", then was hired as a choreographer, and subsequently as a belly dancer for "Mysterious Ways", during their 1992–1993 Zoo TV Tour. By the end of the tour she was in a relationship with The Edge. The couple have two children together, married in 2002, and live at residences in Ireland, France, and the United States. == Early life and education == Steinberg was born and raised in Los Angeles under affluent circumstances.〔Jobling, ''U2'', p. 242.〕 Her father, Robert, is a lawyer in Los Angeles.〔〔 Her mother, a successful interior designer,〔 came from a film industry heritage and grew up on the Universal Studios lot.
