When I did a Speech and Drama Degree at Durban, South Africa, campus, starting 1976, our two movement teachers were Jill Hurst and Margie Larlgam. They had both danced with MG in New York. Does anyone else remember them?

I worked with so many of the people here. I'm wondering exactly when most of the interviews were captured? I was a musician for the school/company from '85 ~ '95.

Ahhh Martha Graham. She was so so strong and inspiring.

Thanks for responding. Were you still there in 1959? That's when I began. I worked in the office, helping Geordie--- for a while. Yeah, the early dancers were like giants to me. Such great artists I was thrilled to be there. I had a real crush on Akiko Kanda. Ah, Youth!

How Great to see her work being given to the next generation of dancers. Inspiring.

Rare and fine interviews with early members of the Graham Company. Linda Hodes, Ethel Winter, Bert Ross, Bob Cohan, Jane Dudley and Nina Fonaroff and the (later) Peter Sparling, and the beautiful Janet Eilber. Valuable insights into the spirit of the dances. Peter Sparling teaching the role of the Preacher in Appalachian Spring.
