GIVING

Visiting artist in dance Kendra Portier was named the first ever Maya Brin Endowed Professor in Dance, thanks to a $1 million pledge by Professor Emeritus Michael Brin to the School of Theatre, Dance, and Performance Studies (TDPS) on behalf of his late mother Maya Brin. The professorship aims to increase training in ballet, foster connections among diverse concert dance forms and provide a foundation for performance and choreography through research and pedagogy.
