DTA’s third memorial scholarship has been added this year in memory of Buddy Harris, who was a talented teacher, choreographer, costumer and supporter of the arts in Arlington for many years.
Buddy was a member of and served as vice president of both Oklahoma Dance Masters Association and the Texas Association Teachers of Dancing, Inc. His professional performing career included tours with Red Skelton and the American Airlines SkyChefs show throughout the United States and overseas. He also worked with Casa Manana, The Dallas State Fair Music Hall, and choreographed the Miss Texas Pageant for many years. Buddy owned and operated the Buddy Harris Studio of Dance Arts in Arlington for 30 years.
