After the personal and professional end of his partnership with fellow dancer Ruth St. Denis and their Denishawn Company, Shawn recruited eight men, including former Denishawn dancer Barton Mumaw, and formed a new dance company based at Jacob's Pillow from 1933-1939. During this time \"Ted Shawn and his Men Dancers\" staged public \"Tea Lecture Demonstrations\" during the summer months to promote the company's work and raise money for living expensese. These demonstrations quickly grew in popularity and would eventually evolve into the \"Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival.\"","In 1941, following the disbanding of Ted Shawn's dance company, the property was purchased from Shawn by the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival Committee for $50,000 and incorporated as an educational, artistic, non-profit organization with Shawn named as founder and artistic director. The group also built the property's first permanent theatre, with performances having previously taken place in a barn studio, which opened on July 9, 1942 as the Ted Shawn Theatre, the first performance space designed specifically for dance. Shawn remained director of Jacob's Pillow until his death in 1972 at the age of 80. Jacob's Pillow has continued to host hundreds of choreographic works up to the present day, with the venue serving as the U.S. debut for a number of international dancers and companies. In 2003, Jacob's Pillow was designated a National Historic Landmark by the federal government, making it the country's first and only Landmark dance institution.","John Lindquist (1890-1980) was a Boston area photographer who specialized in dance-related photography. In 1938, he began photographing \"Ted Shawn and his Men Dancers\" and became the official photographer for Jacob's Pillow in 1940, a position he would hold until his death at the age of 90. His photography work was included in numerous exhibits, particularly in the Boston area, and allowed him to form close friendships with many dancers and choreographers.","Paul McMahon was a Boston art critic, photographer, entertainment reviewer, and artist, who also toured with actress Marlene Dietrich for 13 years assisting her in a number of roles, including stage manager and dresser. McMahon and his partner Ralph Hodgdon, who met in New York City in the 1950s, were a fixture at Boston pride parades where they carried a sign stating how long they had been together. When marriage equality was passed in Massachusetts, McMahon and Hodgdon became one of the first couples to marry, their ceremony taking place on May 29, 2004 in Boston's Public Garden. Following their legal marriage, the couple updated their pride parade sign to say years together and years married (\"56 years together, 6 years married\").

Accessed April 17, 2024. https://www.jacobspillow.org/about/pillow-history/jacobs-pillow-story/.","The property known as Jacob's Pillow, located in Becket, Massachusetts, was first purchased by modern dancer Ted Shawn (1891-1972) in 1931 to serve as an artistic retreat. After the personal and professional end of his partnership with fellow dancer Ruth St. Denis and their Denishawn Company, Shawn recruited eight men, including former Denishawn dancer Barton Mumaw, and formed a new dance company based at Jacob's Pillow from 1933-1939. During this time \"Ted Shawn and his Men Dancers\" staged public \"Tea Lecture Demonstrations\" during the summer months to promote the company's work and raise money for living expensese. These demonstrations quickly grew in popularity and would eventually evolve into the \"Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival.\"","In 1941, following the disbanding of Ted Shawn's dance company, the property was purchased from Shawn by the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival Committee for $50,000 and incorporated as an educational, artistic, non-profit organization with Shawn named as founder and artistic director. The group also built the property's first permanent theatre, with performances having previously taken place in a barn studio, which opened on July 9, 1942 as the Ted Shawn Theatre, the first performance space designed specifically for dance. Shawn remained director of Jacob's Pillow until his death in 1972 at the age of 80. Jacob's Pillow has continued to host hundreds of choreographic works up to the present day, with the venue serving as the U.S. debut for a number of international dancers and companies. In 2003, Jacob's Pillow was designated a National Historic Landmark by the federal government, making it the country's first and only Landmark dance institution.","John Lindquist (1890-1980) was a Boston area photographer who specialized in dance-related photography. In 1938, he began photographing \"Ted Shawn and his Men Dancers\" and became the official photographer for Jacob's Pillow in 1940, a position he would hold until his death at the age of 90. His photography work was included in numerous exhibits, particularly in the Boston area, and allowed him to form close friendships with many dancers and choreographers.","Paul McMahon was a Boston art critic, photographer, entertainment reviewer, and artist, who also toured with actress Marlene Dietrich for 13 years assisting her in a number of roles, including stage manager and dresser. McMahon and his partner Ralph Hodgdon, who met in New York City in the 1950s, were a fixture at Boston pride parades where they carried a sign stating how long they had been together. When marriage equality was passed in Massachusetts, McMahon and Hodgdon became one of the first couples to marry, their ceremony taking place on May 29, 2004 in Boston's Public Garden. Following their legal marriage, the couple updated their pride parade sign to say years together and years married (\"56 years together, 6 years married\").
