Jonathan Stafford named Artistic Director of SAB and NYCB | Wendy Whelan named Associate Artistic Director of NYCB
An alumnus of SAB and former NYCB principal dancer, Jonathan Stafford has been an important figure in the life of the School for over a decade, serving on SAB's faculty and creating the role of Professional Placement Manager. He has shown a sincere dedication to the success, growth and well-being of the School's students.
