Archie Savage

Actor | * 04/19/1914 († 88, 02/04/2003) | Norfolk (United States of America (USA))
Archie Savage (April 19, 1914 — February 14, 2003) was an American dancer, choreographer, and film and theatre actor. He was a pioneer of the African-American modern dance. For several years he was a partner of Katherine Dunham in her dance company. He was among the teachers of Dunham Technique at her school. Archie was one of the earliest black men to portray an astronaut in film. Another one, in the same year of 1960, was Julius Ongewe in the German/Polish film First Spaceship on Venus. The Archie Savage Dancers appear in the movie, "The Glenn Miller Story” and are acknowledged in the film's credits. In one scene, they appear on a screen in a recording studio as the band is recording the song "Tuxedo Junction,” to which they are performing. ()
