Stephanie Dabney

Stephanie Dabney was born in 1958 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Dabney joined the Dance Theater of Harlem at the age of 16. She would become a principal dancer at the company and an international star who inspired young Black dancers. Dabney built an impressive repertoire with the Dance Theater of Harlem, and became known for her dramatic characterizations as well as her flexibility, technique, and elegance. In 1982, she gave her breakout performance as the title character in a reinterpretation of Stravinsky's "The Firebird". Dabney went on to perform this role around the world. In 1990, she was diagnosed with HIV, but continued to perform with the Dance Theater of Harlem until 1994.

Stephanie Dabney died in 2022 at the age of 64.
