Dancing the World Smaller: Staging Globalism in Mid-Century America by Rebekah J. Kowal

Dancing the World Smaller examines international dance performances in New York City in the 1940s as sites in which dance artists and audiences contested what it meant to practice globalism in mid-twentieth-century America.

I assisted with research, editing, creating the bibliography, and creating the index. 2018-2019

The Oxford Handbook of Dance and Politics edited by Rebekah J. Kowal, Gerald Siegmund, and Randy Martin

Assembling research from an international cohort of scholars dedicated to inquiry in the field, this volume investigates relationships between dance and politics, adding detail and dimension to existing research, illuminating epistemological and theoretical topographies, and forging new pathways for related inquiry. 

I coordinated receiving submission from 29 authors, edited chapters per OUP Style Guidelines, obtained permissions for various images, and created the volume’s index.
