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. While Wendy Whalen will not assume a formal leadership role at the School, she is expected to guest teach regularly allowing students to benefit from consistent exposure to one of the most celebrated dancers in NYCB's history.
Both SAB and NYCB are thrilled to usher in this next generation of artistic leadership.
