- Summary:
- In Ruth Page: The Woman in the Work, the Chicago ballerina emerges as a highly original choreographer who, in her art, sought the iconoclastic as she transgressed boundaries of genre, gender, race, class, and sexuality. In the process of discovering the woman in the work, the book also offers encounters with an international cast of dancers, composers, visual artists, and companies.
