As March is Women’s History month we are celebrating the incredible women of the Taylor family! Today we celebrate the career and amazing life of Taylor Icon, Elizabeth (Liz) Walton LeBlanc❤️ A Taylor star, muse, beloved teacher, writer, film producer and choreographer, Liz was a light as an artist and human being. Sadly, she passed away in 2017, but the path she blazed as a Taylor woman will always be an inspiration ❤️ TO LEARN MORE ABOUT LIZ READ BELOW:

Liz was a member of the Taylor Company from 1959 - 1966. She originated roles in many of Taylor's seminal works including classics Aureole, Junction, Insects and Heroes, and Scudorama. Also, in 1981, she performed Taylor's choreography with Rudolph Nureyev and Friends in Honolulu. After retiring from the stage, Liz’s focus as a teacher and filmmaker was on Mr. Taylor's choreography and the Paul Taylor Dance Company. She taught his works to student and professional companies across the United States, in Germany, China and South Africa. She produced three documentaries on Taylor and his work: Conversation with Paul Taylor (1986), Understanding the Choreography of Paul Taylor (1996),and Paul Taylor: The Man Behind the Dance (2013). Furthermore, in 2015, she wrote three articles describing her experiences performing Taylor's dances, for Paul Taylor Dance Company: The Diamond Anniversary," published by Delphinium Books. As a choreographer, Liz founded UMBC's Phoenix Repertory Dance Company (now called Baltimore Dance Project) in 1983, for which she created several works. Phoenix performed at many venues in Baltimore, the DC Metro area, and in New York City. Lastly, Liz was a beloved professor at UMBC (the University of Maryland, Baltimore County)where she was a founding member of the Dance Department and chair of that department for 20 years. What an incredible life! Thank you Liz for all of your contributions to our field! ❤️ ... See MoreSee Less

On this day in 1997 Mr. Taylor’s dreamy EVENTIDE premiered. Costumed by Santo Loquasto and illuminated by the amazing Jennifer Tipton, this beautifully human dance instantly transports the audience into a world of pastoral beauty and takes them on a journey through love and life. Of this work’s West Coast debut Octavio Roca of the San Francisco Gate wrote:

“It’s breathtaking... Can innocence be regained? Paul Claudel in one of his poems said earlier in this century that the vast and serene interior of the cathedral of Notre Dame de Paris was a monument to the eternal innocence of God. Taylor's monumental new dance recalls the primal innocence of God's finest creation. There is real faith at work here: "Eventide" may be Taylor's most humane work. It is certainly among his most beautiful.”

PIONEERS // February is Black History Month and a wonderful time to remember pioneers in our field, although one month isn't enough. The conversation about these artists should be alive always, and their groundbreaking work in our consciousness continually.

One such artist is Edna Guy (1907-1982), who, after seeing Ruth St. Denis perform in Greenwich Village, NY, dedicated her life to modern dance and the Black community, organizing the famous 1937 Negro Dance Evening that help catapult Katherine Dunham and Talley Beatty’s popularity to the world. At her time - and even with her incredible talents - she was not able to perform with the Denishawn company because of her race, and it was through her work with Hemsley Winfield that she took the stage - choreographing and performing - ultimately becoming one of the leading organizers in the Black dance community in the early 20th century. Thank you Ms. Guy for your artistry and for pushing the field of dance forward .

PIONEERS // February is Black History Month and a wonderful time to remember pioneers in our field, although a month isn’t enough. The conversation about these individuals should be alive always, and their groundbreaking work in our consciousness continually.
One such artist is Hemsley Winfield(1907-1934) one of the most important innovators in modern dance, and Black modern dance in America. His choreographic influences were Caribbean dance, German Expressionism, African American themes and spirituals, as well his contemporaries Helen Tamiris and Edna Guy to name a few. During his short life, he created the first Black dance company - Bronze Ballet Plastique (later becoming the New Negro Art Theater Dance Group) in 1931- and created important conversations to support Black voices and bodies, adding tremendous artistic and social value to the Harlem Renaissance, laying the foundation for future generations of Black dancers and dance makers. He was also the first African-American to be contracted a major role @metopera and his dance company was the first Black company to perform @metopera in 1933. He was also one of the first, if not the first individual, to present choreography to the amazing music of the legendary Duke Ellington in 1933. While many of his contemporaries were exploring other sounds of the day, Winfield brought Jazz to the concert dance stage. All of this he did at the height of the Great Depression and before his untimely passing at the tender age of 27. What he did in such a short time was tremendous and a beacon to those who followed in his light.

Four years ago today, Mr. Taylor premiered his penultimate dance in Providence, RI. Can you name this work? Hint, the music is Elgar, the costumes were designed by William Ivy Long, and the set involved an entry way that was ajar.... 🙃
