We wanted to share a recent news announcement concerning Sharon Gersten Luckman, brother of Brant Lake Camp’s Director Rich Gersten, oldest daughter of Bobby and Libbie Gersten and sister-in-law of present Dance Camp Co-Director Mieks Gersten.
After a long and highly successful tenure as Alvin Ailey’s Executive Director, where she re-energized and dramatically strengthened the position of this amazing and unique Dance organization, Sharon has decided to step down from her post after 16 years and perhaps pursue other endeavors.
As you may know, Sharon founded the Brant Lake Dance Camp in 1980 and helped to successfully develop it’s strong program and high standards of professional dance instruction– coupling it with a real summer camp experience for girls.
Prior to her position at Alvin Ailey, she was the Director and dance teacher of the well-know 92nd Street YM/WHA Dance Center, Executive Director of the Twyla Tharp Dance Foundation as well as Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts. She has also been awarded numerous awards for leadership and achievements in the arts.
We hope you enjoy reading about one of our own.
