A groundbreaking biography on Hanya Holm, an influential German choreographer who moved to New York in the early 30’s and was a leading modern dance innovator who worked with Mary Wigman, Alwin Nikolais, Walter Terry, Glenn Tetley, Valerie Bettis, and many more. Holm, dancer, teacher, and choreographer of Trend, My Fair Lady, and other notable works, is one of the half-dozen greatest figures in the world of the dance. This book is at once the story of her career, a statement of her aesthetic principles, and an informed analysis of her impact and importance.
The book is highlighted by Holm’s decade with Mary Wigman in Germany; her work in New York in the 1930’s; the first Bennington Festival; fruitful summers in Colorado Springs; and forays into the related areas of the musical, the opera, and the drama. Here too is Miss Holm’s own view of her life and New York, as set forth in her writings and in many hours of tape-recorded conversations.
