miliosr Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 FYI -- there is a new set of short books out dealing with American choreographers. I picked up the Limon book and the back cover states that the other choreographers in the series are Alvin Ailey, George Balanchine, Agnes DeMille, Bob Fosse, Martha Graham, Jerome Robbins and Twyla Tharp. While the books appear to be geared toward a younger reader (if the Limon book is any indication), I thought the Limon book made for a decent primer on Humphrey-Limon, regardless of age. And there was a great photo on p. 42 of Limon, Lucia Chase, Alicia Markova and Jerome Robbins receiving their Dance Magazine awards in 1958. It made me think that the old time religion ain't what it used to be . . . Link to comment
