I will always remember briefly attending George Washington University before enrolling at the Cornish School of Fine Arts in Seattle (1937). I met composer and friend John Cage, who turned out to be my partner in work, and life. :)
Dance is something that will always be dear to my heart. I will always remember starting as a tap dancer. It was my first theater experience, and it has stayed with me all my life. #reminiscing
After joining the Martha Graham dance company, I later choreographed my own works using music from composer John Cage (pictured here), who became my partner. #partner #in #crime
In 1953, I formed my own dance company and gathered wide acclaim over the decades. I love making innovations while also collaborating with other artistic visionaries. #success

The Nelson A. Rockefeller Award is for being recognized in the fields of music, dance, theater arts and film, and art and design, which correspond to my professional training program within the School of the Arts at Purchase College. I am beyond thankful for this honor!
This is rainforest, a technique I use in dance, when each of the dancers performed his or her role, then left the stage and never returned.. The music doesn’t correspond with the dance, which is another one of my favorite methods. (March 09, 1968)
