Fricker also established a Cecchetti Summer School, a Cecchetti Ballet Company for students and the California Festival Ballet company. In 1971, with Lucille McClure and Shiela Darby, she founded Cecchetti USA. Fricker was also the sister-in-law of author Hugh Lofting, author of the Doctor Dolittle books. She completed two of his books which were published posthumously based on material which had previously appeared in serial format: Dr. Dolittle and the Green Canary (1950) and Dr. Dolittle's Puddleby Adventures (1952). She also wrote the script for a play Doctor Dolittle based on Lofting's books. The Fricker/Darby Scholarship, which supports the development of teachers of the Cecchetti method, was established in the name of Fricker and Shiela Darby. (en)
