Pearl Argyle
Pearl Argyle (7 November 1910 – 29 January 1947) was a South African ballet dancer and actress. Remembered today primarily for her extraordinary beauty, she appeared in leading roles with English ballet companies in the 1930s and later performed in stage musicals and in films.〔Horst Koegler, "Argyle, Pearl," in ''The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Ballet'', 2nd ed. (Oxford University Press, 1982).〕
==Early life and training==
Pearl Wellman, the daughter of Ernest James Wellman and Mary Wellman, was born in Johannesburg,〔Debra Craine and Judith Mackrell, "Argyle, Pearl," in ''The Oxford Dictionary of Dance'' (Oxford University Press, 2000).〕 the major city the Transvaal province (now Gauteng) and the center of gold mining in South Africa. Located on the inland plateau known as the Highveld, it is the largest city in the world not situated on a river, lake, or coastline. Nothing is known of what brought the Wellman family to the city or what, if any, dance training young Pearl might have received there. She first enters dance history in the mid-1920s, when she appeared in London and enrolled in ballet classes at the schools of Nikolai Legat, in Colet Gardens, and Dame Marie Rambert, in Notting Hill Gate. There she was known as Pearl Argyle by other students and members of Rambert's Ballet Club, the performing group from which Ballet Rambert was to evolve.〔Kathrine Sorley Walker, "Ballet Rambert," ''Dance Gazette'' (London), no. 174 (June 1980), pp. 5-11.〕 Among other club members at the time was the emerging choreographer Frederick Ashton, who would play a significant role in her career on the ballet stage.
