The Ever-Expanding Universe of Camille A. Brown

"Like [Debbie] Allen and [Katherine] Dunham, her trajectory is defined by a wide-ranging artistic vocabulary and a sweeping ambition to tell stories across the divide of different art forms and disciplines."

“Camille has this ability to situate a culture, a history, a vibe of Blackness into her work,” Dean Outlaw said. “There's something that's always very authentic about it. Her life would probably be easier if she went with the formulaic, repeating what has been successful in her work. But what I'm always impressed by is that her work never looks the same.” Endalyn T. Outlaw, Dean, School of Dance.

"When she looks at a work, she is looking at the time period and the social class, every notion of what it should look like. And that's why she is an amazing choreographer, because that anthropological mindset of hers can switch into gear through research.” Maleek Washington, CABD Company Dancer and frequent collaborator.
