Summary
  1. Claudia Gitelman (1936-2012), was a dancer, choreographer, author, and assistant professor at the Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University. Her artistic collaborators for productions include Alwin Nikolais, Murray Louis, and Hanya Holm. The Claudia Gitelman papers, dated 1946-2012 (bulk dates 2010-2011), focuses mostly on Gitelman’s curatorial work for Alwin Nikolais’ Total Theater of Motion, a centennial celebration held at The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts from 2010 to 2011. These files include correspondence, photographs of the Nikolais Dance Theatre dance performances, watercolor sketches of dancers, and programs. Gitelman’s career development is represented to a lesser extent mainly through photographs, programs and writings. The electronic records contain a number of manuscripts, drafts, and planning documents for the book On Stage Alone: Soloists and the Modern Dance Canon (2012) that Gitelman co-edited with Barbara Palfy. Other materials in the collection include clippings, notebooks, and notes.
