Jadin Wong(1913-2010)

Fainted while dancing in a Conservatory in Los Angeles because she had been starving, saving up money for dance classes. The dance teacher told her to take care of her body, which to a dancer was like a racetrack driver's car, which needed gasoline, and thus her body, food. Too shy to reveal her poverty, and her teacher too polite to directly offer, he cooked the class soup everyday instead.
