Summary
Eileen Adair (1897-1987) and Nana Ticotin (stage name Ticatin, 1922-1993), were pupils of Irma Duncan (née Irma Erich-Grimme, 1897-1977); herself an Isadorable trained by Isadora Duncan (1877-1927), an American dancer of innovative dance movements. Adair was also a dancer and as a teacher trained Ticotin. Both women occasionally performed together while developing their individual dance styles. The Adair and Nana Ticotin collection, dated 1917 to 1993, reflects the influence of Isadora Duncan on Adair, Ticotin and other dancers through clippings, photographs, programs, a scrapbook, and a book entitled The Technique of Isadora Duncan as Taught by Irma Duncan. Assorted material includes writings by Adair, and flyers about the artist Raymond Duncan (brother of Isadora Duncan).
