Judith Chazin-Bennahum (born 8 April 1937) is a ballet dancer, choreographer, dance historian, writer, and educator. A leader in the field of dance scholarship, she spent her academic career at the University of New Mexico, where she now holds the title of Distinguished Professor Emerita of Dance.〔"Judith Chazin-Bennahum," emeritus faculty biographies, People at the Theatre and Dance Department, University of New Mexico, 2014. http://theatre.unm.edu/people/faculty/php.

==Early life, education, and training==
Judith Helen Chazin, born in New York City, spent her childhood in Jamaica, Queens, where her father, Maurice Chazin, was chair of the Department of Romance Languages at Queens College. Her mother, Mary (Berry) Chazin, was a former high-school English teacher.〔"Bennahum, Judith Chazin," in ''Contemporary Authors'' (Farmington Hills, Mich.: Thomson Gale, 2004). http://media.server.amazon.com. Retrieved 25 February 2015.〕 She began her dance training at age eight, studying tap and ballet with a local teacher, and quickly developed a passion for ballet. When she was ten, she persuaded her mother to take her into Manhattan and enroll her in classes at the Fokine Ballet School, in the upper-floor studios in Carnegie Hall. There she studied with Frank Lester and was observed with interest by Vitale Fokine, son of Michel Fokine and Vera Fokina. Both Lester and Fokine recommended that she audition for entrance into the High School of Performing Arts, which she did, successfully, when she was twelve years old.
There, Chazin studied ballet and modern dance with Lucas Hoving, Bella Malinka, Doris Rudko, Robert Joffrey, who was her principal ballet teacher, and, in her senior year, Benjamin Harkavy. Selma Jeanne Cohen was her instructor in dance history. During her school years, she and other students performed at various venues in New York City, and in July 1953, when she was sixteen, she went to the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Becket, Massachusetts, to dance with the Robert Joffrey Ballet Company in his ''Scaramouche'' and ''Umpateedle''. When she finished high school, her father insisted that she go to college rather than pursue a career in dance. Upon application, she received a full scholarship to Brandeis University, near Boston, and spent the next four years there as a theater arts major, with an emphasis on dance. Upon her graduation with a bachelor of arts degree, ''magna cum laude'', in 1958, she determined to make a career as a dancer.〔''Curriculum vitae'' Judith Chazin-Bennahum, supplement, 2015, in personnel files of the Department of Theatre and Dance, University of New Mexico.
