Condition for Access [turn blinking off]

I in this paragraph refers to Eileen C Bauer ecb@world.std.com)

Margaret has made the thesis available to the network on the condition that people who read the thesis either send me (ecb@world.std.com) or her their postal address. Whatever postal addresses that get sent to me, I will forward to her (she's not on the net). She will put you on her mailing list, but all that would mean is getting an occassional flyer from her. I don't think this is a big deal since it does save people the $15.00US + $4.50p/h cost of a paper copy of the thesis. If you've already "fetched" parts of the thesis, I would appreciate it you sent either me or her your address. She'd like to make connections with people all over (not just in the US, she was in Norway a few weeks ago and will be in Tokyo, Japan in mid May). Sorry if people object to this, but it's hard to find good dance material that's also in the public domain.

You can currently choose between different formats. I tried to improve the original ASCII version as much as I could. Scanning problems made that version harder to read.

Margaret Batiuchok Video Tapes

The thesis goes along with 4 videos that Margaret produced; however, the thesis does not require any of the videos to be understood and each video can stand by itself. The videos are $59.99US+$4.50p/h each and have Margaret interviewing, demonstrating steps and dancing with one partner per tape:

  1. Frankie Manning, Chief Choregrapher of Whitey's Lindy Hoppers in the late 1930s & 1940s; winner Tony Award, for Black & Blue (2 hours)
  2. George Lloyd, Savoy dancer of the late 1940s & 1950s. Margaret's champion partner in the 1983 Harvest Moon Ball (2 hours 20 minutes)
  3. Charlie Mead Jamacian born, jazz and tap dancer in Buddy Bradley shows in Europe in the 1950s (2 hours)
  4. Tom Lewis, Margaret's former student, is one of the best Lindy dancers in New York City (2 hours)

Each tape contains previews of the other three.
