| Martha
Graham: A Dancer's Life |
 |
by
Russell Freedman
Graham
was a dancer, choreographer, and teacher for more than 70 years,
and during that time she changed the landscape of dance forever.
An unlikely candidate for a dance diva, she was shorter and
more muscular than the principal ballet dancers of her time
and she didn't start dancing until age 22--a flower long past
her bloom in the eyes of most choreographers. (1998)

Martha
: The Life and Work of Martha Graham |
 |
by
Agnes De Mille
Martha
Graham's life and times seen through the discerning, appreciative
eye of Agnes de Mille. This is an earthier, more human Graham
than in her own Blood Memory (p. 839); it is also a more detailed
look at the era. Graham's vision was so focused that she was
unaware of, or thought unimportant, the surroundings, players,
intrigues; she was also extremely private. De Mille can and
does give us the fuller picture. (1991)
