Mark DeGarmo : Dance as a Social Innovation
Season 1 - Episode 3
On this episode, I meet with Dr. Mark DeGarmo, Founder, Executive & Creative Director at Mark DeGarmo Dance, in New York City. We discuss MDD's upcoming 35th anniversary and its foundation. We discover how Mark came to create "Partnerships in Literacy through Dance & Creativity”, a celebrated & innovative educational program that has changed the life of thousands of kids attending Title 1 primary schools in Manhattan's Lower East Side over the course of 20 years now. Happy 35th MDD!
