In 1943, Beckford toured with the legendary Katherine Dunham; and, in 1947, she founded the first recreational modern dance department in the United States at the Oakland Department of Parks and Recreation. Beckford opened the Ruth Beckford African-Haitian Dance Company in 1953. She closed her dance studio in 1975, but continues to perform. She co-wrote, produced and starred in 'Tis the Morning of My Life, an off-Broadway success.
