Jerome Andrews

(1908-1992)

Two different lives – as a star of the dance stage and music hall during the 1940s in New York, then as “guru” in Paris from the 1950s until his death in 1992 – make Jerome Andrews an atypical figure in modern dance. His career was mapped out by determination and followed an unconventional course. If little of his actual work survives, his thinking is still a potent magnet for those who were drawn to it in the past and who continue to be drawn to it today.
