AVIVA
STONE
La
Grande Dame des Ateliers
1948 - 2007
Born
in Newark NJ deep in Philip Roth territory,
at the time a veritable hotbed of secular
Jewish culture, Aviva Stone
entered the discipline of classical ballet
at the age of six. She later went on to
modern and folkloric dance. At the age
of sixteen she went to Israel to embrace
the pioneer life of the kibbutz.Upon
her return to the United States, she was
privileged to study acting with the late,
great Bill Hickey.
She
discovered the art of posing "as
a venue o expression with the power of
the body and the drama of the individual
spirit which has given this actor work
for life."
Ms
Stone lived in the Williamsburg section
of Brooklyn NY with her dear one.
