Doris Humphrey


Doris Humphrey joined the Denishawn Company, where she danced with people like Martha Graham and Charles Weidman. She ended up making a company, studio and school with Charles Weidman. She then developed her technique which included the prominent idea of fall and recovery.


Reflection

After researching Doris, I realize how interesting her life was. I wonder why she became the Artistic Director of the Jose Limon Ensemble... did she have any previous ties to Jose?
