At age 14, Browne received a scholarship to train with Marion Cuyjet. She later auditioned for the School of American Ballet and became one of six Black students in the school. She became a member of the New York Negro Ballet in 1957, and in 1958, she performed alongside dancers like Nat Horne, John Jones, and many more in an Alvin Ailey and Ernest Parham recital at the 92nd Street Y. Browne contributed to the important work of Memoirs of Blacks in Ballet (@mobballet), which works to preserve, present, and promote the contributions and stories of Black artists in the field of Ballet. Check out their page for a wonderful interview with Browne. 📷: Delores Browne, no. 3, photo by Maurice Seymour, 1950-59. Jerome Robbins Dance Division. #NYPLDigitalCollections」10月20日 11時39分
