Polish-born Edyta Sliwinska rose out of a difficult, economically trying background (and a working-class Eastern European family), with the singular goal of establishing herself as the world's preeminent Latin dancer. Sliwinska reportedly gravitated to dance as a corollary of her deep-seated love of music. Shortly after establishing herself in the professional arena, she was tapped by ABC to participate in the network's blockbuster competitive reality series Dancing with the Stars, and she went on to became the only participant to dance in the first five consecutive seasons. Her celebrity partners included Evander Holyfield, George Hamilton, Joey Lawrence (with whom she came in third place in the third season), John Ratzenberger, and All My Children actor Cameron Mathison. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
