Four American women - Marcia Siegel, Deborah Jowitt, Arlene Croce and Nancy Goldner - have contributed to the writing culture for dance criticism. This work offers an analysis of their styles and ideas from 1965 to 1985, the "Golden Age of Dance" in New York.
Four American women: Marcia Siegel, Deborah Jowitt, Arlene Croce and Nancy Goldner are writers who became dance critics partly by design. By showing us extensive examples from their vivid writing about dance, Diana Theodores presents a detailed and illuminating analysis of their styles and ideas from 1965 to 1985, the Golden Age of Dance in New York. For the first time, she presents these four writers as a school of dance criticism, four women who defined American dance in a key era of its recent history.
