John Carrell (January 25, 1947 – September 20, 1989), later known as John Aubrey, was an American ice dancer and ballet dancer. With partner Lorna Dyer, he was the 1967 U.S. national champion.[1] They were the 1967 World silver medalists and 1965–66 World bronze medalists.[2] John was adopted by James and Helen (Baldwin) Carrell, and grew up in Seattle. His father James Carrell was a professor of speech and hearing at the University of Washington, and mother Helen (Baldwin) Carrell was a speech therapist for the Seattle public schools. After retiring from competitive skating, John graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in political science. He spent some time coaching, but decided to reinvent himself as a ballet dancer.[3] From 1973 to 1980, he was known as John Aubrey, a member of the National Ballet of Canada.[4][5][6] In 1989 he died of complications resulting from AIDS.[6]
