Born in America’s heartland and raised in Pennsylvania, Galloway was fascinated by the world of dance early in his childhood through a neighborhood program. Under scholarship, his creative talent and dedication led him across the Atlantic, where he secured an 18-year legacy as a principal dancer with the renowned Frankfurt Ballet under American choreographer William Forsythe. Yet, his artistic prowess didn’t stop at dance; his childhood love for fashion fortuitously led him to become the creative director of Issey Miyake.

Likewise, Galloway’s versatile talent did not stop at the footlights of a ballet stage. His unique eye for movement and aesthetics caught the attention of rock legends, The Rolling Stones, becoming their creative consultant and choreographer, touching everything from stage design to music videos. Simultaneously, he continued to break boundaries in the fashion industry, beginning his decades-long working relationship with the prestigious Dutch photographer duo Inez and Vinoodh.
