As the Administrator of Ulysses Dove's estate, Alfred Dove ensures that his ballets continue to mesmerize global audiences
Ulysses Dove (1947-1996) was a pioneering American dancer and choreographer known for his powerful stage presence and innovative choreography. Born in Columbia, South Carolina, he began his dance training while studying pre-medicine at Howard University. He later transferred to the University of Wisconsin to study under Xenia Chlistowa of the Kirov Ballet, and graduated from Bennington College with a degree in dance in 1970.
Dove moved to New York City, where he joined the Merce Cunningham company and performed with notable artists like Mary Anthony, Pearl Lang, and Anna Sokolow. In 1973, he became a principal dancer with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, gaining acclaim for his dramatic clarity and intensity. Encouraged by Ailey, he turned to choreography, creating works such as “Inside” for Judith Jamison.
After leaving Ailey in 1980, Dove had a successful freelance career, choreographing for prominent companies including the Basel Ballet, Royal Swedish Ballet, and New York City Ballet. His works, characterized by relentless speed, force, and eroticism, include “Night Shade,” “Bad Blood,” “Vespers,” and “Red Angels,” the latter being a highlight of the New York City Ballet’s Diamond Project.
Dove’s impact on dance was recognized posthumously, with his work featured in the Emmy Award-winning PBS special Dance in America: Two by Dove. He died on June 11, 1996, leaving a lasting legacy in the world of contemporary dance.
