His memoir is a rare firsthand view of the dance world in the 1940s and through the end of the twentieth century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne of the few male dancers in Graham's company--and in the New York dance scene at the time--Hodes offers a unique perspective and a one-of-a-kind narrative. He describes how he fell into the art by chance, happening to walk into Graham's studio one day. He was soon hooked. He documents his experiences, travels, passions, and loves while learning from and performing with Graham, during which time he saw most of the United States, much of Europe, and some of Asia. Advancing quickly, he eventually danced as Graham's partner in \u003cem\u003eAppalachian Spring, Deaths and Entrances, Every Soul Is a Circus\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eErrand into the Maze\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn his portrait of Martha Graham, who was the center of his dancing world, Hodes recounts conversations, revelations, bouts of temper and creativity, the daily ritual of deeply physical dancing, and the never-ending search for artistic validity. Direct, often humorous, and always authentic, Hodes shares his delight in dance as both hard work and a fantastic adventure. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 330\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 19, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52454959874355,"sku":"9780813066387","price":33.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/K1hOMGZ0MDdCVnlRUDVSSkhGaWVnQT09.webp?v=1759139839","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/onstage-with-martha-graham-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
