University.
Parmenia Migel Ekstrom (1908-1989) was a ballet historian and author,
and founder and president of the Stravinsky-Diaghilev Foundation. Although she started
her career as a writer under her maiden name, Parmenia Migel, in her subsequent
career as a dance scholar and collector, she used her married name, Mrs. Parmenia
Ekstrom, sometimes abbreviated PME in this finding aid. In the late 1930s she founded
and headed the executive committee of the Ballet Guild (New York, N.Y.). From 1946 to 1955, she lived in France where she directed a gallery and
organized exhibitions and concerts. On her return to New York, she founded and
directed the Dance Department of the New School for Social Research
(New York, N.Y.), where she also lectured. She became Honorary Curator
of Ballet at the Harvard Theatre Collection and was a long
standing member of the Committee for the Dance Collection for the New
York Public Library. As a writer, Ekstrom contributed to many scholarly
dance journals and published a number of books on ballet history. She also published a
biography of the Danish author Isak Dinesen . In the late
1950s, she established and directed the Stravinsky-Diaghilev Foundation which
collected material related to Igor Stravinsky's and Serge Diaghilev's careers, organized
exhibitions on dance, promoted dance research and supported a great number of
writers, researchers and students of dance by giving them access to the Foundation's
collection of dance material. She was also involved in the operation of her husband Arne Horlin Ekstrom 's gallery, Cordier & Ekstrom,
in New York.
Organized into the following series:
- I. Compositions
- II. Correspondence
- III. Scrapbooks
- IV. Personal
This collection came as part of a larger donation of papers of Parmenia Migel
Ekstrom. The papers consist of three major sections: original material related to Ballet
Russes, collected by the Stravinsky-Diaghilev Foundation; research files, assembled by
the Stravinsky-Diaghilev Foundation; and personal papers of Parmenia Migel Ekstrom.
A separate finding aid was created for each section of the donation.
This collection includes typescripts and galley proofs of Parmenia Migel Ekstrom's
compositions, private and business correspondence with dancers, choreographers,
composers, writers and students of dance, scrapbooks of dance illustration material and
of press reviews of her books, and a few personal items.
Correspondents include Alexandra Danilova, Felia Doubrovska, Anton Dolin,
Allegra Kent, Millicent Hodson, and Carla Fracci.
The other papers received in the donation from Parmenia
Migel Ekstrom have been cataloged into separate finding aids as:
-
Stravinsky-Diaghilev Foundation collection (MS Thr 495)
-
Stravinsky-Diaghilev Foundation research files (MS Thr 502)
