David Vaughan, Modern Dance Historian And Merce Cunningham’s Archivist, Dead At 93

“[He] served the Cunningham company and school in various capacities for a half-century. … He began collecting dance ephemera in the late 1950s and was considered the first in-house archivist of an American dance company, a post he held officially from 1976 until the Cunningham troupe disbanded in 2012 after Cunningham died, in 2009.”
