Sally Banes is the Marian Hannah Winter Professor Emerita of Theater History and Dance Studies at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. Her many books include Reinventing Dance in the 1960s, Terpsichore in Sneakers, Dancing Women, Democracy's Body, and Greenwich Village 1963. Andrea Harris is assistant professor of dance at Texas Christian University. A former student of Sally Banes, she contributed to Banes's earlier book, Reinventing Dance in the 1960s, also published by the University of Wisconsin Press.
Banes is one of the major dance critics and historians of our time. She explores a wide range of artistic and cultural issues - from experimental art to disco dancing to ballet dancing for elephants - in prose as engaging as it is erudite. Experiencing her mind, as many serious lovers of dance will agree, is a heady experience. - Deborah Jowitt, New York University, author of Time and the Dancing Image
