After the screening, Gladys Bailin Stern will be conferred the Honorary Doctor of Fine Arts degree in recognition of the breadth and depth of her accomplishments in the field of modern dance.  

Gladys is a link to the origins of American modern dance, emerging from the first company of [dancers from] dance-legend, Alwin Nikolais. She welcomed radical new ideas and encouraged us always to make work that engaged audiences. — Lucy Sexton, BAA ’82, executive director of New Yorkers for Culture and Arts and co-choreographer/creator of DANCENOISE
