BIOGRAPHY

Mentored by Gregory Hines, Andrew Nemr is an international artist, teacher, and speaker. His work has crossed music, dance, theatre, film, and the visual arts, exploring art as a vehicle for storytelling and community building. Described as “A masterly tapper” by The New York Times, Andrew is recorded on the Grammy nominated recording Itsbynne Reel by Dave Eggar, and is the co-founder of the Tap Legacy(tM) Foundation, Inc.

Andrew’s work has been recognized with numerous awards, grants, fellowships, and commissions and is the topic of the award-winning documentary short film Identity: The Andrew Nemr Story. He writes regularly at The Notes with Andrew Nemr and considers his highest personal achievement his ability to wiggle his ears.
