Morgan Gregory, originally from Richmond, VA, is a graduate of the Ailey/Fordham BFA program, and majored in Africana studies and dance. She was honored as a Denise Jefferson Memorial Scholar when she graduated from the Ailey/Fordham BFA class. Professionally, Gregory has performed works by Jacolby Satterwhite and Annie Rigney, and is collaborating with visual artist Julien Creuzet and choreographer Ana Pi on a continuing multidisciplinary project that explores sound, shapes, and movements within the African diaspora. Further, holding the identity of an American Black woman, she is constantly exploring ancestral importance. In this continuous effort of understanding, she finds herself creating in spaces of intersectionality: Academia, Womanhood, Blackness, Dance, and Theater. She premiered her work Homage (2023) at The Ailey School, The Craft, and Steps Beyond. Additionally, she has debuted a short movement-based film, Reflections of a Black Star (2024), which will premiere at Arts on Site in September 2024.

“Performance Mix Festival has its own life, and Karen and the staff continue to evolve with the times in a way I appreciate…it was tremendous to be a Liftoff AIR and then get to show the work I had continued to explore as an AIR a year later at PMF!”
