Lavinia Williams

Lavinia Williams (July 2, 1916 – July 19, 1989), who sometimes went by the married name Lavinia Williams Yarborough, was an African-American dancer and dance educator who founded national schools of dance in several Caribbean countries.
==Biography==
Lavinia Williams was born the second of six children in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, grew up in Portsmouth, Virginia and Brooklyn, New York and studied in New York City after high school, where she joined the American Negro Ballet, beginning her career in a number of dance companies and stage productions.
Her work included classical ballet, folk, modern, musicals, and, most importantly, Caribbean dance, which she mastered in the 1940s while working with Katherine Dunham. She spent nearly the entirety of the years from 1953 through the late 1980s teaching dance and founding and developing national schools of dance in Haiti, Guyana, and the Bahamas.
She spent most of the last years of her life teaching in New York City, but left the United States for Haiti in 1984 February.〔Glinsky p. 325〕 She finally died of a heart attack in Port-au-Prince, although several sources〔Glinsky p. 372 "Dunbar: many sources in Haiti that I interviewed."〕 and Beryl Campbell reported it as "some kind of food poisoning".〔''Theremin: An Electronic Odyssey'', written, directed and produced by Steven M. Martin. Orion/MGM, 1994: 26mins Beryl Campbell reports Lavinia's call; 50mins Lydia Kavina reports Stalin's award; 51mins Beryl reports Lavinia's food poisoning〕 Diana Dunbar, Lavinia's friend and student, arranged her funeral service.〔
