This one hits deep & personally

#JudithJamison, #AlvinAiley #Dancer of ‘#PowerAndRadiance,’ Dies at 81

She became an international star as a member of the company & later directed it, guiding it out of debt & boosting its popularity.

[personal note, I grew up studying #dance; 1st in my park district community center, then with the #Chicago City #Ballet - #CCB, then my beloved #HubbardStreet, & last stop -- Alvin Ailey. This loss is near unbearable]
