In a brief history, Ellen Switzer discusses how dance developed through the years and how it gradually became a part of the American scene. But more important, she gave us a look at the companies that have a major influence on American dance in modern times: The New York City Ballet, The American Ballet Theater, Martha Graham, Twyla Tharp, Paul Taylor, The Alvin Ailey Company and The Dance Theater of Harlem, among others. Ms. Switzer discusses their philosophy of dance, their choreographers and choreographies, and their dancers. She also discusses what the lives of young dancers and the lives of superdancers are like, through interviews with a number of both. Seller Inventory # 061207001
