"I joined the Ballets Russes when I was 14, and my name was changed twice. I was known as Marie Istom..." — Cyd Charisse

I joined the Ballets Russes when I was 14, and my name was changed twice. I was known as Marie Istomina, then as Felia Siderova. When I went to Hollywood and made my first movie, 'Mission to Moscow,' in 1943, I became Lily Norwood.
