This biography introduces readers to one of America's most inspirational and successful dancers and choreographers. Born in 1894, Graham dreamed of being a performer -- a profession her parents did not support. But she did eventually win over her family, as well as the entire nation, with her passion and her persistence. After a brief apprenticeship, she formed her own company and forged a new style of movement. She was able to perform until she was 74 years old and to continue choreographing until her death at the age of 96. Includes 31 B & W photos of her life and dances, and details of more than 20 of the dances she choreographed and performed.
