Musings from Paul Taylor, one of the foremost American Choreographers of the 20th century.
From "one of the most singular and searching imaginations of our time" (the NEW YORK tIMES), come pieces of fact and fiction ranging from thoughts on friendliness and country living to animosity and city life.
Paul Taylor began his career in the 1950s as a dancer and choreographer, retiring from performing in 1974. Known for his edginess and willingness to address the most sensitive of subjects, his dances often dealt with mans place within nature, love and sexuality, life and death, and iconic moments of American history. Taylor has received a plethora of awards including an Emmy in 1992 and the National Medal of Arts in 1993.
