Inconsistent date of colon cancer diagnosis? edit

In the introduction,

"Halprin was diagnosed with colon cancer in 1972."

yet

in paragraph "Working with the terminally ill",

"In 1951, Halprin was diagnosed with a malignant tumor in her colon;".

Inconsistency or serial diagnosis? SalineBrain (talk) 17:05, 1 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

In her latest book, Anna tells about being diagnosed in 1972 and then again 'three years after' her operation - probably in 1975. The articles has been corrected to include 1972 consistently and add a new source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5rhythms (talkcontribs) 09:28, 12 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

name edit

Was Anna Halprin born Hannah Schuman or Anna Schuman? The article is not consistent about this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:6B0:E:2B18:0:0:0:80 (talk) 20:58, 27 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Confirmation of death edit

Folks, I understanding reverting reports of her death that were sourced only by a family member posting on behalf of the family on FB. But now it is widely confirmed, this was the first I spotted: https://datebook.sfchronicle.com/dance/anna-halprin-modern-dance-innovator-and-healer-dead-at-100 Raines (talk) 23:21, 25 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
