Founder of the Philadelphia Dance Company (PHILADANCO) and the Philadelphia School of Dance Arts, Joan Myers Brown's personal and professional histories reflect the hardships as well as the advances of African-Americans in the artistic and social developments of the second half of the twentieth and the early twenty-first centuries.

This study focuses on the social, racial, and artistic climate for African-American performers working during the swing era, roughly the late 1920s through the 1940s.
