IIRC....US ladies that Lori Nichol has most recently worked with (06/07 season) include:
Meissner (LP), Flatt (SP), Kahle, Hyatt (LP), R. Hughes.

I just replied to this in the "Favorite Choreographers" thread:

I actually liked Kahle's choreography this year.

Alex Chang was listed as Kahle's choreographer in 2006-07.

It seems every choreographer just doesn't work for everyone. I guess it is up to the skater to experiment and find what works for them.

Yes, and I also think it depends on how much time a choreographer works with a skater (just once vs. several times during the pre-season/season) and if they can develop a "synergy."

Czardas challenged Mao Asada last year. I think she was constantly trying to catch up to the music and the choreography......I think the experiment will pay off in the long run.

In what ways? Will a skater learn do more elements within limited time by skating to fast music, for example???

when people are trying things that they don't normally do or was out of their comfort zone (Czardas is a deviation from the types of music Mao usually skated to), they are challenged and tend to mature. I thinks that's how it can help.
