Choreographer and director Jerome Robbins was born on October 11, in 1918, making this his centenary year. The New York Public Library has just opened an exhibition titled “Voice of My City” which traces Robbins’ life and dances alongside the history of New York. In its review, New York’s local news WNYC says: “The exhibit is organized around the theme of Robbins’ complicated identities as a ballet and Broadway man, a Jew, a gay man, an outsider and an insider, and someone fascinated by youth culture and by the life of the city.”

“Voice of My City” is on now through March 30th, 2019.
