%0 Book %A Joanne Kilgour Dowdy %D 2012 %C New York, United States of America %I Peter Lang Verlag %@ 1947-5985 %T Artful Stories %B The Teacher, the Student, and the Muse %U https://www.peterlang.com/document/1109109 %X These are the stories of four arts practitioners from Trinidad and Tobago – a lighting designer, a dancer, a jazz musician and a choreographer – who have made names for themselves internationally. The book centers on their role as educators in their fields; their unique and individual journeys exemplify the classic role artists have (always) played as teachers. Artful Stories is a timely and profound work that captures the teacher-student dynamic. It fills a void by recognizing the contributions of Caribbean artists to U.S. and European artistic scholarship. This book will be a valuable asset for teachers and professors as well as an excellent textbook for undergraduate and graduate classrooms. %K Artists, Black males, Higher education, Dance, Drama, Lighting design, Qualitative research, Oral history, Trinidad, Caribbean, International scholars, Communicative arts, literacy, designer, dancer, musician, choreographer, Music %G English
