Dale Hikawa-Silverman

Mia Thermopolis is now a college graduate and on her way to Genovia to take up her duties as princess. Accompanied by her friend Lilly, Mia continues her 'princess lessons', like riding horses side-saddle and archery. But her already complicated life is turned upside down once again when she learns that she is to take the crown as queen earlier than expected, all while she meets a mysteriously charming young man.

In a field historically dominated by white men, Dale Hikawa was the first Asian woman to join the Los Angeles Philharmonic. She then advanced through the ranks to become the acting principal of the viola section, paving new roads as a Japanese American musician. Looking back on her long career, this trailblazing violist reflects on the meaning of her life's work. "DALE" both illuminates and leaves mysterious those whose lives are devoted to following a muse.
