Summary
Dancer/choreographer Mark Morris on this edition of Fresh Air. Early in his career, Morris performed with a variety of companies. He then founded the Mark Morris Dance Group in 1980, creating over 90 works for the troupe. He has also staged over a dozen commissions for other ballet companies, including the San Francisco Ballet, Paris Opera Ballet, and the American Ballet Theatre. From 1988-1991, Morris was director of dance for the national opera house of Belgium in Brussels. Morris was named a MacArthur Fellow in 1991, and he is the subject of a biography by Joan Acocella. This spring, the Mark Morris Dance Group is opening the Mark Morris Dance Center in Brooklyn, New York. (Broadcast Date: May 21, 2001)
