Barbara Arnest (1923-2017) was a writer and the editor of The Colorado College Magazine, the college's alumni magazine. Arnest, a long time Colorado Springs resident, worked on an unfinished biography of modern dance pioneer Hanya Holm, who taught at the Colorado College Summer Dance Festival for over forty years. The Barbara Arnest collection of Hanya Holm material dates from 1965 to 1986 and is primarily comprised of Arnest's notes (some of which she took while observing Holm's classes), interview recordings and transcripts, bibliographic research, and a few incomplete drafts. Approximately a dozen programs for Colorado College dance performances and the Colorado Opera Festival are present. The class notes and sound recordings document the content of Holm's classes and her style of teaching. A detailed listing of items is available as an additional resource. less
