#DLYFEDanceIcon Alvin Ailey was an African-Amer #DLYFEDanceIcon 

Alvin Ailey was an African-American choreographer and activist who founded the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in New York City. He is credited with popularizing modern dance and revolutionizing African-American participation in 20th-century concert dance. 

Ailey was born in Rogers, Texas, in 1931. He and his mother moved to Los Angeles, California, in 1942 where in 1949 he entered the Lester Horton Dance Studio. Ailey assumed the role of artistic director at the Horton Dance Studio following Horton’s death in 1953. 

The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater was founded in 1958. The company still exists and continues the tradition of eclecticism that was Ailey's hallmark. 

Alvin Ailey left us with 79 original choreographed works, many focusing on African American cultural and artistic themes.
