Summary:Dancer and social worker Marjorie Witt Johnson was born on March 18, 1910 in Cheyenne, Wyoming. Johnson graduated from Cheyenne High School in 1929 and earned her B.S. degree in social work from Oberlin College in 1935, where she was introduced to modern dance. Johnson founded the Karamu Dancers and performed at the 1940 World's Fair. While teaching dance to inner-city youth, Johnson incorporated the students' life experiences with oral history and music while stressing cooperation with others. Among her notable dance works are Barbeque, Tea Time, Braham's Rhapsody in G Minor, The Sermon, and From House to House which was performed in Nigeria as Lati Ile' si Ile'. The City of Cleveland honored Johnson, as did numerous other organizations, for her seventy years of service in promoting arts in education. Johnson passed away on June 19, 2007 at age 97.
