She has also appeared on CBS’ “60 Minutes\,” “CBS Sunday Morning\,” ABC’s “Good Morning America\,” NBC’s “The Today Show” and “Little Big Shots\,” celebrating extraordinary young people. \nShe made her first awards season guest performances in 2019 with Taylor Swift at the American Music Awards and at the 2020 Grammy Awards alongside Camilla Cabella\, Common\, Ben Platt\, and dancers from the Debbie Allen Dance Academy\, as well as the televised Prince Grammy Tribute performing with award-winning recording artist H.E.R. Copeland made her Broadway debut in “On The Town” in 2015 and her major motion picture debut in Disney’s “The Nutcracker and the Four Realms” in 2018. She is also featured in an episode of “MasterClass\,” the online series. \nCopeland started her production company\, Life In Motion Productions\, focused on bringing representative stories of artists past\, present and future\, and normalizing the arts experience. Her first independently produced project\, “Flower\,” premiered at the Tribeca Festival in 2023 and is a silent arts activism film using dance to help raise awareness about intergenerational equity. \nCopeland is an avid philanthropist and is an ambassador of the Boys & Girls Clubs of America\, of which she is also an alum\, and MindLeaps\, an arts education program based in Rwanda that helps young people get off the streets and into an academic setting to help enhance their lives. \nIn 2022\, Copeland launched The Misty Copeland Foundation\, with its first signature program BE BOLD\, which aims to bring greater diversity\, equity and inclusion to dance\, especially ballet.
