First Edition First Printing stated August 1996. The Da Capo edition was not published until September 25 1996. Publisher's laminated photographic boards endpapers yellow. Illustrated with B&W photographs. Now for the first time the life and work of Alvin Ailey one of the most beloved figures in modern dance is examined by a writer uniquely able to place him and his legacy in perspective. Jennifer Dunning New York Times dance critic and reporter brings her expertiseextensive research and a compassionate intelligence to this larger-than-life personality making Alvin Ailey not just a portrait of a man but also of his time.Aileys story is the stuff of legend. His Revelations one of the great American dance classics is said to have been seen by more people than any other work in dance history. Yet the small-town-culture that is at the heart of his finest work was absorbed by a child growing up in devastating poverty neglected by a loving but exhausted mother who raised him alone. Aware of his homosexuality from his teens Ailey lived and worked in the unusually accepting world of the theater but sometimes hid his sexuality as if he had never left his conservative family and Southern church. An athlete in his youth and a member of a profession that idealizes physical perfection Ailey abused his body with alcohol and later drugs. Surrounded by admiring friends he felt alone. Yet against great odds Ailey pulled the pieces of this life together to create a passionate mosaic of art and dance giving birth to an indispensable institution that continues to play a joyous vibrant role throughout the world. Dunning shows us how Ailey took the essence of his experienceswhether from the driving rhythmic music that poured from the local Dew Drop Inn on hot Saturday nights or the simple motion of men beating the water to drive back snakes during his baptismand translated them into masterpieces.Filled with stunning photographs and hundreds of interviews with those who knew him including such stars of dance and theater as Mikhail Baryshnikov Judith Jamison Lena Horne Katherine Dunham Sidney Poitier and Dustin Hoffman Alvin Ailey is the story of a man who wove his life and his culture into his danceand into the fabric of America itself. .
