‘Formidable and wickedly funny’: SOMD professor produces award-winning documentary on Bella Lewitzky

Bella, a new documentary that examines and celebrates the life of artist and activist Bella Lewitzky, is dazzling audiences across the world.

Hailed as a modern-dance pioneer, Lewitzky was a California-based dancer, choreographer, and teacher. She was designated one of America’s irreplaceable dance treasures by the Dance Heritage Coalition and won the National Medal of Arts in 1996.

University of Oregon School of Music and Dance (SOMD) associate professor Walter Kennedy worked tirelessly for years on the award-winning film about Lewitzky’s life as the associate producer, alongside director and producer Bridget Murnane.
