Norman Crider was a baton-twirling champion and proprietor of the Ballet Shop near Lincoln Center in New York. He also owned a gallery-bookshop on Madison Avenue where in 1977 he held an acclaimed exhibition on prima ballerina Anna Pavlova. In 1957 Crider performed with batons in an ice show at the Conrad Hilton Hotel in Chicago, at which time he began to study ballet. Two years later he developed a nightclub act combining ballet and baton-twirling which he took to Europe.

He taught twirling to French and Italian schoolchildren for the next eight years and was awarded the Order of Cultural Merit and Philanthropy by the French government. Besides the Ballet Shop, Crider founded the Antiques Center of America, on the East Side of Manhattan, and owned shops in the Trump Tower and La Boutique Fantasque at Rockefeller Center.

After the Ballet Shop closed in 1996, he opened a shop in Winter Park, Florida, which was located next to The Morse Museum of American Art, before moving to Indianapolis. Over the years his shops attracted rich and famous clients such as Greta Garbo, Paul Newman, Bette Midler, Morgan Fairchild, Barry Manilow, and Anthony Perkins, amongst others.

Norman was one of the original merchant tenants in Trump Tower, opening Norman Crider Antiques, located on terrace level D, and The Rose Tree, which focused on Russian Art. The Trump family were frequent shoppers.
