Martha Graham’s Blazing Talent, Journey to Dance, and The Greatness, Creativity, and Courage That Birthed Modern Dance She was told she was too old. Too unconventional. Too bold. But Martha Graham paid no heed. She was a rebel, a visionary, and a force of nature, and she was about to take the dance world by storm. In Martha: The Rebel Dancer Who Took the World by Storm, we trace Graham’s electrifying journey from her first defiant steps as a young dancer to her groundbreaking choreography that sent shockwaves through the arts. We glimpse her fierce early training under ruthless instructors, her break from tradition to nurture her unique talents, and her meteoric launch into stardom while still in her 20s. Yet Graham was just getting started. Her provocative performances sparked rapture and outrage across society as she overturned artistic boundaries and confronted the socio-political issues of her day. With intimate interviews and backstage revelations, this book captures Graham’s uncompromising quest for creative expression in vivid detail–the falls, the curses, the wars with critics, and her unshakable commitment to movement as an act of independence. For any young dancer, theater lover, or budding artist seeking inspiration on how icons are born through following an inner creative fire beyond convention, Goddess of the Stage presents a revelatory ride alongside the little-known personal facets behind the mother of modern dance, now still captivating global audiences more than ever before.
