Trisha Brown (November 25, 1936 – March 18, 2017) was an American choreographer and dancer, and one of the founders of the Judson Dance Theater and the postmodern dance movement. [1] Brown’s dance/movement method, with which she and her dancers train their bodies, remains pervasively impactful within international postmodern dance.[2]
