{"value"=>"<p>Fé Alf [the professional name of Felicitas Ahlff] was born in Germany c.1910 and received her early dance training with Kurt Jooss in Hamburg. She later studied the Mensendieck method and then entered the Wigman School in Dresden, graduating in 1931. She came to New York City in November 1931 as assistant teacher to Hanya Holm at the New York Wigman School. She opened her own studio where she taught modern dance and she performed as a concert dancer until c.1939 primarily performing her own works. In 1938 she joined with Louise Allen, William Bales, George Bockman, Kenneth Bostock, Elizabeth Colman, Alice Dudley, Eleanor King, William Miller and Sybil Shearer to form the Theatre Dance Company, a cooperative group.</p>"}
