Rosamond Gilder: Influential Talisman for African-American Performers
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 July 2009
Extract
More than any other Caucasian critic of her generation, Rosamond Gilder created opportunities for people of color. While many critics came to find fault, Gilder helped African-American actors, playwrights, directors, scene designers and dancers, not only in her celebration and recognition of them, but in her fairness and objectivity in evaluating their work.
