15. Spirit
 Photographer Ed Kashi: “Frankie Manning was one of the creators of the Lindy Hop style of ballroom dancing, and well into his 90s he traveled the world teaching its steps. This image, taken at his 86th birthday party in Baltimore, captures his effortless joy and beaming spirit. He’s cutting the rug with one of the eighty-six women he danced with that night—[almost] one for every year of his life."
