About me: Cynthia Gutierrez-Garner received her B.F.A. Summa Cum Laude at the University of Minnesota in 1998. Her choreography, which blends contemporary modern and traditional American jazz, is highly musical and borrows from all aspects of art and life to create a unique dance experience enjoyed by dancers and non-dancers alike. Her work has been produced at numerous theaters in Minneapolis, MN, Phoenix, AZ and the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. From 1998- 2001, she served as the Choreographer in Residence for the Minnesota Dance Theater under the direction of Lise Houlton. Original works by Gutierrez-Garner have been commissioned by Macalaster College, Glendale Community College, Scottsdale Community College, Arizona State University, Gustavus Adolphus College, Minnesota State University and the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. Gutierrez-Garner’s work has seen support from organizations such as the Jerome Foundation, the Mcknight Foundation, the Walker Art Center, the Maricopa Community Colleges, & the Arizona Commission on the Arts. She is a three- time winner of the Arizona Choreography Competition’s Professional Division. She has taught for the faculties of the Arizona State University, Glendale Community College and Scottsdale Community College. She currently teaches techniques of both modern and jazz dance at Gustavus Adolphus College and the University of Minnesota dance program. She is a devoted wife and mother, proud Latina, passionate Foodie....with a secret dream of going to culinary school and hosting a Food Network show.
Who I'd like to meet: People who are passionate about modern dance, concert jazz dance, other professional working artists who also balance motherhood with career. Other Latino artists. Jesus. Bjork. Martha Stewart.
