New York Public Library Short-Term Research Fellowships (2023–2024)
Caroline Shadle (she/her) is a doctoral candidate in Northwestern’s Interdisciplinary PhD in Theatre and Drama program (IPTD). In spring 2025, Caroline will spend two weeks at The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts as a short-term research fellow, conducting archival research for her dissertation. The project, “Mapping Dance in the Chicago Federal Theatre Project (1935–1939): Federal Arts Funding, Artistic Experimentation, and Urban Social Networks," traces the history of Chicago concert dance funded by the Federal Theatre Project (FTP). Through archival research on FTP dance aesthetics, audience reception, and the relationships among dance artists, social networks, and urban space, she aims to contribute to a fuller understanding of what federal funding made possible for artists, audiences, and the city in Depression-era America and beyond. Caroline’s research is also supported by Northwestern’s Critical Dance Studies Cluster Grant and an inaugural Galvin Graduate Student Professional Development Award.
