<head>Biographical Note</head>
<p>Adolph Bolm was born in St. Petersburg in 1884, entered the Imperial Ballet School in 1894, and became a dancer with the Maryinsky Theatre in 1903. Bolm spent less than a decade with the company, during which time he led Maryinsky tours to Scandinavia and Europe, and served as partner to ballerina Anna Pavlova. In 1909, he began performing with Serge Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes, excelling in character roles such as Pierre in Michel Fokine’s <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Le Carnaval</title> (1909) and the Moor in <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Petrouchka</title> (1911). Perhaps his most vivid role was that of the Chief Warrior in Fokine’s “Polovtsian Dances,” from Act 2 of Aleksandr Borodin’s opera <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Prince Igor</title>, a ballet remembered for its particularly savage and exotic choreography. While dancing with the Ballets Russes, Bolm often partnered with ballerina Tamara Karsavina. He danced the Tsarevitch role to her Firebird in <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Firebird</title> (1910). Bolm left the company in 1917 after sustaining an injury and because Diaghilev was unwilling to allow Bolm to create ballets for the company (Diaghilev instead promoted Vaslav Nijinsky as choreographer). Bolm went to America where he established the touring company Ballet Intime. It was known for its Eastern dance styles and featured such dancers as American Ruth Page, Roshanara, and Michio Ito. In the 1930s, Agnes de Mille and Martha Graham performed as guest artists for the company. In 1918, Bolm choreographed and danced in the ballet <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Falling Leaves</title> for the Broadway revue <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Miss 1917</title>. In 1918-1919, he staged and performed in two Ballets Russes de Serge Diaghilev works, <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Le Coq d’Or</title> and <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Petrouchka</title>, at the Metropolitan Opera House. He later staged these works, as well as other Ballets Russes ballets, in Buenos Aires and San Francisco.</p>
<p>Bolm spent most of the 1920s in Chicago where he worked as ballet master, premier danseur, and choreographer for the Chicago Civic Opera and the Chicago Allied Artists organization. Two significant ballets that he choreographed during this period were <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Birthday of the Infanta</title> from 1919, with music by frequent collaborator John Alden Carpenter, and the 1922 ballet <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Krazy Kat</title> based on the cartoon by George Herriman. He created several one-act ballets, often using designs by Nicolas Remisoff, both for the Chicago company and for his own Adolph Bolm Ballet company. The Bolm Ballet toured the United States and frequently featured Ruth Page and guest artist Vera Mirova. Louis Horst provided musical direction. In 1928, the Library of Congress, under the patronage of Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge, commissioned Igor Stravinsky’s score <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Apollo Musagète</title> for Bolm. Bolm also premiered the ballets <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Arlecchinata</title>, <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Alt-Wien</title>, and <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Pavane pour une Infante Défuncte</title> at the Library of Congress that year.</p>
<p>During the 1930s Bolm worked in California, acting as ballet master for the San Francisco Opera, and unofficially establishing the San Francisco Ballet, from 1933-1936. He was hired to stage the dance scenes for the film <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Mad Genius</title> (1930), directed by John Barrymore. It is for this film that Bolm first created his ballet, <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Le Ballet Mécanique</title>. In 1922, Bolm had collaborated on an experimental short film, <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Danse Macabre</title> (to Camille Saint-Saëns’ score of the same name) with dancer Ruth Page and director Dudley Murphy. In 1941 he would work on two more films, <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Men in her Life</title> and <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Corsican Brothers</title>. Bolm frequently re-mounted and re-choreographed <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Le Ballet Mécanique</title>, presenting it in 1930 at the Hollywood Bowl as <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Spirit of the Factory</title>, and later under its original title with the San Francisco Opera. He continued to choreograph for the San Francisco Opera, creating works such as <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Danse Noble</title> (1934) and the three-part work, <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Bach Cycle</title> (1936). In 1940, Bolm joined the newly-established Ballet Theatre where he choreographed <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Peter and the Wolf</title> to Sergei Prokofiev’s score. He also served as company regisseur from 1942-1943, and staged his version of <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Firebird</title> in 1945. He choreographed his last ballet, <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Mephisto</title>, for the San Francisco Civic Ballet in 1947.</p>
<p>Besides choreographing and staging Ballets Russes works throughout the United States, Bolm also taught, opening studios in Chicago and Hollywood and instructing a generation of American dancers such as Cyd Charisse. He died in 1951 in Hollywood, leaving behind a legacy as dancer, choreographer and teacher.</p>

<p> The Photographs series includes black and white prints of Adolph Bolm’s professional portraits. It also includes pictures of him in costume in various Michel Fokine ballets, such as <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Le Coq d’Or</title> and <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Firebird</title>. Several of these larger portraits (in boxes 4 through 6) are taken with Tamara Karsavina, his frequent partner with Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes in such ballets as <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Thamar and Le Pavillon d’Armide</title>. There are photographs of Bolm in the role of Chief Warrior in Fokine’s “Polovtsian Dances” from the opera <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Prince Igor</title> — a particulary notable role during his tenure with the Ballets Russes. In addition, there are photographs from Bolm’s own ballets, such as <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Bach Cycle</title> and <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Le Ballet Mécanique</title>. The latter was an important work in Bolm’s choreographic career as he revived it several times in different forms, taking inspiration from the earlier work <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Spirit of the Factory</title>. The series contains photographs of Bolm with frequent collaborators, such as dancer Ruth Page, his partner at the Ballet Intime and the Adolph Bolm Ballet, composer Igor Stravinsky, who composed <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Apollo</title> for Bolm’s <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Apollon Musagète</title> in 1928, and John Alden Carpenter, who composed music for several of Bolm’s ballets. One photo shows Ballets Russes impresario Serge Diaghilev on tour in Lausanne in 1915. In addition, the series includes several small snapshots and postcards that show Bolm in costume for several roles, on tour with Ballet Intime, or in rehearsal. The last few folders include photocopies of photographs of Bolm, including one with John Barrymore, director of the film <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">The Mad Genius</title>, for which <title xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:type="simple">Le Ballet Mécanique</title> was created.</p>
