Quick Glance: Broadway Icon Chita Rivera Dies at 91
- Chita Rivera, the dynamic dancer, singer, and actress who blazed a trail for Latina artists in a long Broadway career and overcame a near-fatal car accident, passed away on Tuesday.
- Rivera first gained wide notice in 1957 as Anita in the original production of 'West Side Story' and was still dancing with her trademark energy a half-century later in 2015’s 'The Visit' on Broadway.
- In the 1993 musical 'Kiss of the Spider Woman,' Rivera played the title role, a glamorous movie star at the center of the fantasy life of an inmate in a South American prison.
- The songwriters for 'Chicago,' Kander and Ebb, also wrote Rivera’s first Tony-winning performance, for 'The Rink.' In winning the Tony for best actress in a musical, Rivera topped the show’s top star, Liza Minnelli, who also had been nominated.
