Description
Streaming audio file (approximately 28 minutes). Alvin H. Reiss introduces the program and his three guests: Isadora Bennett, Philip Schweidel, and Dr. Robert Henderson. Publicist Isadora Bennett speaks with Reiss about the challenges of publicizing dance events including the need to educate the public about dance; how she approaches publicizing little-known types of dance; how she works with newspapers; her work as a publicist for Ballet Theatre [American Ballet Theatre] and for Martha Graham. Following Reiss's introductory remarks, Philip Schweidel, director of tourism for New York City, speaks about the general aims of his department and ways in which an individual or company can attract and provide information about performing arts events and venues to the tourist audience. Following Reiss' introductory remarks, Dr. Robert Henderson, chief of the General Library and Museum of the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center [now The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center], speaks with Reiss about the recent [Herbert] Migdol exhibition, and an upcoming exhibition at the Library; the gathering together of the [New York Public Library's] performing arts collections in one place, at Lincoln Center; the performance facilities in the Library and the kind and frequency of (free) programing anticipated; the availability of the Library's performing space to artists, free of charge.
