570:. The solo was very militant and full of jumping, but Hinkson “made it more fragile and human and feminine and that she deeply feared what she had to do.” Although Graham usually would adapt roles to the dancer, she stayed true to her vision for this one at the time. The rest of the production was even rushed; Hinkson remembers the day they performed: ”Jessica was sewing seams on me in the wings when the music was playing and the curtain was up, so I went out there like I was shot out of the cannon.” Later, the dancers performed in plain and uniform costumes so their performances rather than their outfits would be judged. Eventually, the roles were rearranged as the dance continued to be performed into the future, but the role of the warrior as Mary knew it was gone and changed. She did not perform as the warrior again as it went to other dancers instead.
614:, her and Graham worked off of films; they had to grapple with them in order to get over the challenges of the movements being mirrored, the film being sped up, and the music being silenced. It took the quick playing of their pianist to help them put the movement to the soundtrack. They also had difficulty adapting to the tweaks Graham made to the choreography over the years. Hinkson relied on notes scribbled in the margins of the sheet music to piece it together. To put together the heart of the character, Hinkson drew a line between who she was supposed to be at the beginning of the piece versus the end so she could showcase everything.
723:
very true, a kind of ritual where it's as if a human being is emerging through a ritual experience and you're going way way way back in time to find out who you are.” Despite her love for the overall experience, Hinkson had to work extra hard to embody her character because she was not playing a specific person like she usually does, instead having to flesh out the details for herself by searching for herself through the ritual. The hardest part of this, Hinkson thought, was making sure the dance is still more than just a dance. Overall, this piece and the music was an almost religious experience for
Hinkson as well as a great challenge.
995:'s relationship had its ups and downs. At their best, they had meaningful rapport during rehearsals and choreography sessions and sometimes Martha gave Hinkson a rare compliment on her movement. Other times, they fought over rechoreographing and Hinkson's endeavors outside of the company. She appreciated Graham's talent, wisdom, and process, but at times did not like the way she spoke to her. Hinkson mostly tolerated their spats, but at times would retaliate with her own attitude. In response to Hinkson taking other opportunities or standing up for herself, Graham would often yell at her or limit her from participating in certain works.
446:. In the early days of building up to this position, she was to demonstrate for eight weeks and lead an introductory course before moving up the food chain towards teaching company classes. When demonstrating for Graham, Hinkson would be verbally instructed in the moment as to what she should be doing and sometimes took a little bit longer to catch on. Hinkson didn't particularly enjoy the process and felt that it didn't provide a great understanding of what it meant to be an instructor. A maximum of 25 students were enrolled in each class.
623:, she said, “We must realize that it's a woman scorned, but first she was a woman in love. So to play Madea as a witch from the moment the curtain pulled up would miss the whole point.” It was also a struggle to learn this piece off of film as they had no notes scribbled on the sheet music. Mary was able to get very emotionally involved in the dance, although she was only able to perform it twice. She did earn a compliment from Martha, however, for how she used the music.

308:, the head of the dance department, had a love for kinesthetic awareness and teaching scientifically which she shared by teaching her students how to test the limits of their bodies. One exercise Hinkson recalled was creating movement on the floor while blindfolded and then recreating it while standing for it to eventually piece together into a phrase. Mary loved learning under her and the ways she coaxed out their individuality.
599:. She had difficulty connecting to the piece as well as didn't much prefer all of the sitting and watching it included. Doing the Furies dance was a much more enjoyable experience for her. And although the ending was altered later, the original one with some of the cast walking forward holding a stoll above their head had an incredible dark and continuing effect. When learning the role of Iphigenia, she was taught by

Other courses she took included “English, French, history, zoology, and PE,” all of which she excelled and received A's and B's in. Thankfully, the university was one of the first to have a real dance major which Hinkson abandoned all of her previous credits to join.
461:. In comparing the two, she said, “There was none of this chaos that we always had. You know, we're in the company where we aren't ever told what you're gonna dance, we weren't given a contract, we weren't this, we weren't that, and if you dared to ask you were being insolent.” Between the years 1952 and 1953, Butler regularly took the opera to perform at the

to instill in them a sense of hard work and it was rewarding to see some of them do well, although many were not very committed. While Graham was away, in and out of the hospital, or secluded, Hinkson and Ross would visit her and talk about everything other than the company. Graham never acknowledged the existence of the program to
Hinkson's face.
416:. After this performance, her talents were recognized by Martha Graham and she was asked to join the Martha Graham Dance Company, which was sponsored by the B. de Rothschild Foundation and opened April 13, 1953 at the Alvin Theater. She continued to work with the company and even joined one of YURIKO's experimental classes.
765:, it is not the most satisfying because there are moments of stop where they must pose uncomfortably. “There's no denying that the best training in the world is to actually perform,” Mary said, and she was able to gain this experience throughout her career. “Each thing in a certain way contributes in some way.”

Working with Tetley was different than other choreographers. He didn't often require dancers to improvise so he could get inspiration, he initiated ideas without imposing dynamics or quality. Working with him was challenging but still pleasurable. Mary often dreaded the practices at Graham's company,

as a spectator the concept went right over her head, but performing it gave it a whole new life and meaning for her: “It was as though I had been put in touch with some unknown ancestors or something.

She said, “You have to dance it more than be like ‘I'm going to be dramatic.’ I think you have to dance it, really dance it, go with it, and give it flight.”
453:. When she stopped at the drugstore on the way to her audition, she noticed a tall man in an aviator suit with a big dog.
