The 85th Anniversary season has come to an end, and I’m thrilled to share a collection of images I made of women leaders in dance throughout the festival.

This season was the first festival curated by Pamela Tatge, our new director of Jacob’s Pillow Dance. She put together an incredible summer of dance, with companies who perform everything from tap to classical ballet, names you’ll recognize as iconic like Trisha Brown Dance Company and lesser known companies on the rise like Ate9 Dance Company.

Something special about this year’s festival was the number of women leaders in dance that it celebrated and presented. The companies performing in the theatres this summer were exceptional, and the majority of them are directed by women.
