Dance Data Project®’s Leader Board is dedicated to DDP Advisory Council member Lynn Garafola. A lifelong dance scholar and critic, Lynn’s current research covers one of the most innovative women choreographers of the twentieth century, Bronislava Nijinska, and is set to be published in 2022.

The Leader Board is an index of women leading in dance through both creative and administrative roles. It includes female artistic and executive directors, ballet company founders, choreographers, directors, producers, authors, lighting and costume designers, composers, film producers/directors and more.
