Anna Sokolow (1910-2000) began her professional dance career in 1929 as a member of Martha Graham's company. Beginning in the 1930s, she affiliated herself with the politicized "radical dance" movement. By 1936, she had organized her first company, Dance Unit. Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, she performed and choreographed both solo and ensemble works, which addressed the subjects of the exploitation of workers and the persecution of Jews in Germany. In 1939, she began a life-long association with the dance in Mexico and Israel. In Israel, she choreographed for major dance companies, including Batsheva, Inbal, and the Lyric Theatre. At New York's Julliard School, she taught what she called "method dancing" from 1958 to 1993.
