Jose Limon - An Artist Re-viewed (Paperback, Pbk)

This lively collection of articles on dancer and choreographer Jose Limón provides a valuable insight into the life and times of the important Mexican American choreographer.
Born in Mexico, Limon came to the United States at the age of seven. Caught between his native and adopted cultures, Limon used this cultural tension to shape his craft while working with his mentor Doris Humphrey. Incorporating bold choreography into performances that broke the mold of how male dancers had been perceived, Limon often depicted flawed men caught in complex dramas.
Limon's dance company was the first to be invited by the State Department to represent the U.S. on a tour of South America, and is the first modern dance company to survive the death of its founder.
