This Day in Women's History

By Jone Johnson Lewis, About.com

Quote for Today

    We look at the dance to impart the sensation of living in an affirmation of life, to energize the spectator into keener awareness of the vigor, the mystery, the humor, the variety, and the wonder of life. This is the function of the American dance.

    -- Martha Graham
