"THE WORLDS OF LINCOLN KRISTEN, written with authority and elegance by Martin Duberman (author of the acclaimed PAUL ROBESON: A BIOGRAPHY), is...an eye-opening account of what one might call the shadow-side of cultural history. For artists, no matter how bohemian their lifestyles, need commissions, theaters, galleries, patrons, critics, students and, sometimes, comforters. All these Lincoln Kirstein worked hard to provide....Few children of the wealthy have contributed more, or more directly, to the artistic enrichment of the nation."
Michael Dirda, Washington Post, 04/22/2007

Book Description: Northwestern University Press, United States, 2009. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 2, from an Out. 229 x 154 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Lincoln Kirstein was a tireless champion of the arts in America. Working behind the scenes to provide artists with money, space, audiences, and, at times, emotional support, he helped found such landmark cultural institutions as the New York City Ballet, the School of American Ballet, New York's Lincoln Center and Stratford's American Shakespeare Festival. Duberman's biography sheds light on this lamentably neglected cultural figure. Though best known as a benefactor of the arts, Kirstein was also an adept critic, poet and novelist who published some fifteen books in his lifetime. From his undergraduate years at Harvard, where he established the influential literary magazine "Hound and Horn," as well as the Harvard Society for Contemporary Art (precursor to the Modern Museum of Art), to his complex and historically significant relationship with George Balanchine, Kirstein's contributions were indespensible to the development of the arts in America. Authoritative and elegant, Duberman's biography utilizes previously unavailable documents, including Kirstein's diaries, to reveal the keen eye, incessant self-doubt, and enormous ambition that drove Kirstein's relentless advocacy. "The Worlds of Lincoln Kirstein" brings attention to an important, but until-now unappreciated figure whose individual contribution to the arts was one of the greatest of the twentieth century.
