Two delightful new portraits of Leslie Caron, who is seen on the left with Carrot-Top, one of the puppet confidantes in “Lili." BALLET DANCING LESLIE T ESLIE CARON is the little blue-eyed, brown-haired Parisian ballet dancer who has won everybody’s heart since she went to Hollywood. At the age of fifteen she was dancing solos for Roland Petit, choreo- grapher of the Ballet des Champs Elys6es. David Lichine, seeing her, was so impressed that he gave her a leading role as the Sphinx in “La Rencontre,’’in which she was a brilliant success. For the next two years she toured Europe dancing, and in 1948, Gene Kelly, visiting Paris, saw her dance. Two years later he suggested that she made a test, which was sent to America, and she signed for the leading role opposite him in An American in Paris. Since then she has ap- peared in The Man with a Cloak, Glory Alley, The Story of Three Loves and Lili.
