Leslie Freeman Taub (she/her) is a proudly Disabled movement artist, and a work of art in perpetual progress. In October 2023, she was featured in AND YET…, a showcase of new work by disabled choreographers curated by Heidi Latsky for Arts On Site, in which Leslie performed her solo David’s Lotus Sutra and debuted “Mourning, Broken” with collaborators Tobaron Waxman and Luznérida Rosado. “Mourning, Broken” is one of an evolving series of movement explorations from perspectives of cognitive impairment, fiscally sponsored (under the title Explorations of Memory) by Fractured Atlas. In addition to her own projects, Leslie has performed with Alison Cook Beatty Dance, Buglisi Dance Theater, Infinity Dance Theater, and, for several seasons, Abilities Dance Boston. She was also a member of the core company of Heidi Latsky Dance from 2015-2020, and reunited with HLD to restage Latsky’s D.I.S.P.L.A.Y.E.D. at Yale University in June 2023. A current Dance/NYC Disability Dance Artistry and Social Justice fellow, Leslie lives in Washington Heights with her partner, daughter, grandchildren, dog, and two recently rescued guinea pigs.
