Interview with the Library for the Performing Arts
Dancer Katherine Kramer was amongst the vanguard of the renaissance of New York’s tap dance scene in the 1970’s. She recently spoke about her history reviving the tradition of tap dance in the city and worldwide through her mentorship with Ralph Brown, and other legendary dancers and performers whose papers are preserved by the Library for the Performing Arts.
This interview with Kramer is just a preview of a several hours-long conversation between the Library’s Jenai Cutcher and Kramer for the Jerome Robbins Dance Division’s Dance Oral History Project.

“You can see the tradition in her work, but she’s also stretching the concept of tap dance.”
