BEBE MILLER (Professor) received
her M.A. in Dance from The Ohio State University in 1975. Her interest in finding
a physical language for the human condition is a connecting thread throughout
her work, and, in order to further a process of group inquiry, she formed
Bebe Miller Company in 1985, performing worldwide. Her most recent work,
Landing/Place (2005), a multi-media work made in collaboration with ACCAD,
the Wexner Center for the Arts, and the Department of Dance, received
a NY Dance and Performance Award (“Bessie”) in 2006. Bebe
has created works for Boston Ballet, Oregon Ballet Theatre, Dayton Contemporary
Dance Company and Philadanco. A four-time “Bessies” winner,
she has received fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, Ohio Arts
Council, New York Foundation for the Arts and the National Endowment
for the Arts. She currently serves as a board member for Dance USA, Dance
Theater Workshop and Danspace Project, and is a member of the International
Artists Advisory Board of the Wexner Center for the Arts. She has collaborated
with the Department of Dance in producing several digital documentation
works, including a DVD-ROM of Going To The Wall, a CD-ROM of Prey that
accompanies the Labanotation score, and DanceCODES, a software template
for choreographic documentation. Bebe teaches modern technique, improvisation,
repertory, Creative Practice and Choreography, and a Graduate Seminar
in Current Issues in Dance.
