Martha Graham assignment-Dance

Martha graham was born in Alleghany in May 1894. She was an American dancer, choreographer, teacher and director of her company. In 1916 she went to study at the Denishawn School of dance. The school was a combination of Ruth St. Denis and Ted Shawn. Shawn took over the teaching of graham and she partnered him for most of her time at denishawn dancers.

After leaving the Denishawn School she appeared with the Greenwich Village follies. She only appeared with them for a short while then moved on and began teaching at the Eastman school of music in Rochester. She gave her first solo in New York in 1926. She was told she lacked power. In 1927 she choreographed ¡¥Revolt¡¦ a rebellion against denishawn.

She founded Martha graham school of contemporary dance late on in 1927. A lot of grahams work was very dramatic but not all. Her complete ideas by 1981 comprised of more than 160 different titles. One exception of her dramatic work was ¡¥Diversion of Angels¡¦.
