Representing dancers, scholars, admirers, and critics, I See America Dancing is a diverse collection of primary documents and articles about the place and shape of dance in the United States from colonial times to the present. This volume offers a lively counterpoint between observers of the dance and dancers' views of what they do when they dance. Dance traditions represented include the Native American pow-wow; tribal music and dance activities on Sunday afternoons in New Orlean's Congo Square; the colonial Playford Balls and their modern offspring, country line dancing; and the Buddhist-inspired Japanese Bon dances in Hawaii. Anti-dance perspectives include government injunctions against Native American dancing and essays from a range of speakers who have declared the waltz, the twist, or the senior prom to be a careless quick-step away from hell or the brothel. I See America Dancing examines the styles that have marked theatrical dance in America, from French ballet to minstrel shows, and presents the views of influential dancers, choreographers, and the pioneers of early modern dance in America. Specific pieces examined include George Ballanchine's ballet Stars and Stripes, Yvonne Rainer's protest piece "Flag Dance, 1970," and Sonjé Mayo's "Naked in America." Covering historical social attitudes toward the dance as well as the performers and their works, I See America Dancing is a comprehensive, scholarly sourcebook that captures the energy and passion of this vital artform.

This companion volume to the Emmy Award-winning PBS television series offers a complete history of dance in America and a behind-the-scenes look at companies, choreographers, and individual dancers. Coe shows how ballet, with its roots in France and Russia, has undergone a renaissance in the United States. Focusing on the New York City Ballet, the American Ballet Theatre, and Balanchine's contributions, he offers examples of the expansion of ballet's popularity in the Feld Ballet, the San Francisco Ballet and the Dance Theatre of Harlem. He also describes the origins of modern dance, the contributions of its pioneers Isadora Duncan, Loie Fuller and Denishawn, and the artistic revolution of Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham. He covers postmodernists such as Paul Taylor and Katherine Dunham, and concludes with a portrait of Twyla Tharp. ISBN 0-525-24325-9 : $29.85.
